Khan

Artwork at Great North Museum: Hancock
Created for 'Where Did All the Animals Go?' exhibition at Great North Museum: Hancock, 'Khan' highlights the plight of one of the most beautiful and elusive species on Earth, the vulnerable snow leopard, known locally as the ‘Ghost of the Mountains’. The drawing depicts historic events and waning cultures, through the eyes of these big cats. Over thousands of years, from high on the mountains, snow leopards have witnessed the rise of Ghengis Khan and the Mongol Empire, Nepalese villagers driving caravans of yak across the Himalayas and the extermination of Mongolian wolves during the Chinese Cultural Revolution. To this day, snow leopards are hunted for their fur, and face increasing pressures from human encroachment on their habitat. This artwork explores the region where the snow leopard is Khan.
