Though Koalas are more solitary animals, they are some of the most exceptional mothers - caring for their babies and making sure they learn everything they need to know, no matter how long it takes. I wanted to show that unconditional love a mother has towards her child. Anything she can do to support them in their adventures, as a guide and a protector. I've composed this piece based on my observations, I've witnessed joeys reaching off their mother's backs to get to leaves and to see this endearing act is rather special. In an ever-changing world, perhaps this should be our first lesson in the true support, protection and love of life.
