This portrait captures the tiger in a moment of stillness, allowing its raw strength and silent authority to emerge through the lens. Taken at Bali Zoo in 2020, the photograph goes beyond documentation to explore the tiger’s duality — both a symbol of untamed wilderness and a creature existing within human boundaries. The tight composition emphasises its piercing gaze and striking features, echoing the qualities of power, dignity, and vulnerability. By framing the animal in portrait style, I sought to give the tiger the same reverence often reserved for human subjects, inviting viewers to confront it as an individual presence rather than an abstract symbol of the wild. This work reflects my ongoing exploration of how portraiture can bridge empathy between human and animal, revealing shared qualities of grace, fragility, and strength.
