ARTIST: Maddie Heinlen

DESCRIPTION:

Rabbits are funny little animals that often live right among us in our yards and neighborhoods, yet they somehow elude us. Whether sneaking into our gardens, jumping down rabbit holes, or trying to avoid being "wabbit" hunted, they nearly always manage to stay out of sight. While Harry may appear to be black and white, with closer inspection, there is much more going on. He is an optical illusion, capturing the idea that rabbits are always trying to trick us - maybe using some of their magician's magic.
