This 1973 print depicts a dense, crouching form that oscillates between body, animal and myth. The jagged ridge along the back loosely evokes a dragon-like creature, stripped of its traditional lightness and authority and rendered instead as weight and compression. Executed through a combination of lithographic drawing and screenprinted colour, the figure appears pressed against the surface, tense and resistant rather than dynamic. The red ground amplifies a sense of heat and pressure, transforming the creature into a metaphor for contained force - physical, psychological, or political - held in a state of uneasy suspension.
