Statement from the Artist
“Before creating the OIAF 2022 poster, I adopted a pair of owls so that I could observe their habits”, says Wong Ping. “They were mating in my yard one night. Dozens of eyes in the bush were peeping at this loving pair. A butt sticks out from the bush, breeding golden eggs. I suppose it is the owls’. I collected them carefully. I had never tasted an owl’s egg before, so I broke one into my mouth. Owl’s egg white and yolk were all over my face and my keyboard.”
