THE STORY
Bang! is the second design of Jane's Siberian tiger diptych and one of eight designs from her iconic print and china series In Homage to the Last Great Carnivores of Eurasia. It highlights threatened and endangered carnivores across the Eurasian continent.
Bang! pays homage to the elusive Siberian tiger and highlights why they are threatened. Stalking through the centre of this beautiful china plate, a magnificent tiger is unknowingly being watched by a hunter. Next to the tiger is a tiger skull pierced by a bullet hole and layered with imagery of revolutionary soldiers who have just slain a tiger. This symbolises the initiating circumstances of the rapid decline in the population of Siberian tigers. Soldiers of the Russian Revolution based in Vladivostok prolifically hunted this species to around 40 wild individuals. World War II saw a reprieve for tigers with a decline in hunting and their numbers gradually recovering to a current population of around 562 wild Siberian tigers. This species is classified endangered and is still threatened by hunting and habitat loss. Jane's meticulous drawings take several months to research and make.
