“I’ve crafted a special gift for Ben Weprin, the CEO of Graduate Hotels—a distinctive baby hippopotamus made entirely from chicken wire. It stands at 27 inches tall and spans 4 feet in length, made using around five rolls of 18-inch chicken wire. This piece isn’t just about the art; it’s a token of my profound appreciation. Graduate Hotels gave me an extraordinary opportunity to infuse their legacy with my artistic touch. It’s truly rare for an artist like me to be involved in something so transformative. I really can’t thank Ben and the Graduate Hotels team enough for believing in my work and giving me this unique platform.”
