The animal version of my Machine versus Nature.
My entry to the Philippine Polymer Clay Guild Mechanized Menagerie: P3's Steampunk Challenge.
When we talk about machine, I think about power. And when we talk about power and animals, I think about two of most powerful ones; Lion and Eagle. Imagine the majestic forms and agility of lion and eagle, enhanced by the power of machine.
Machine pertains to technology which is so vital in improving our day to day living, but could be harmful to our environment. Lion has the authority, strength and wisdom for balance and sound judgment. Eagle has a gift of exceptional vision. It glides when flying to conserve energy, and uses energies wisely.
Mighty synthesis: a balanced fusion of technology and understanding that enables us to have an advance way of living without the harmful effect on our ecosystem.
