Fight Between a Boy and a Tiger, 2024
70 x 50 cm
acrylic on canvas
Yoko saved his father from the tiger. One day, when 14-year-old Yoko was accompanying his father to the fields, a tiger interrupted their harvest. The beast leapt towards Yoko's father and held the man in its jaws. Desperate to save his father, Yoko jumped onto the tiger's back and wrapped his arms around the man's neck, squeezing his throat until the tiger released Yoko's father and fled into the forest. The boy rescued and carried his father home on his back.
According to a Chinese story by J. H.
