From the artist:

"I’ve had this image in mind for a long time but had never been able to execute it. Zebras are skittish and difficult to get close to, and the image I desired involved a low angle and a close proximity - both difficult to achieve. Plus, I wanted them to be running at full tilt AND for their stripes to create the perfect artful kaleidoscope of pattern in harmonious synchronicity. Minimalism is a huge part of my practice - so I wanted an environment where the zebras could be the sole focus of the viewer’s line of sight with no distractions.

Day in and day out we saw zebras - thousands of them - but they all seemed to scatter with any movement. Then, in the Kitirua Conservancy bordering Amboseli, I finally found my opportunity. At around 1:30 in the afternoon - a rare time for me to be out given the harsh sun at this hour - I finally got my image. With no shadows from the grass I was able to maximize the monotone foreground and pull the focus entirely to the wave of zebras crossing before me. These animals always seem to move as one, creating a visual rhythm that expands and contracts as they gallop together."
