The Hitchhiker’s Guide
LOCATION: Africa
Black Rhino, Ox-Pecker Birds & Egret
This piece explores the harmonious relationship between grazers and birds. Highlighting the Black rhino, one of Africa's iconic and solitary creatures; along with charismatic and communal Ox-Peckers and Egret, we take part in their shared journey.
Playing host to a crowd of highly energetic chorus of feathered hitchhikers, the quietly powerful and humble of beings, our rhino becomes their guide as they move through the grasslands. With the striking flare of an oncoming African sunset we experience a moment that encapsulates a timeless link between symbiotic species.
