''......Done as a maquette for the Leopard Creek collection (see footnote lot 5), this piece explores the tension of a stalking leopard: the low crouch position, tight into the earth, hidden behind grasses, incredibly tense like a coiled spring just waiting for the moment to ambush its prey. Also, like all the pieces, here the leopard is merging into the earth, disappearing into the base of the sculpture, emerging out of the landscape - a tightly coiled, tense, crouching cat.''
