1. Introduction of Shawu Elephant
Shawu is a famous African elephant, known for its huge body and long tusks. It was one of the “Big Five” elephants in Kruger National Park, South Africa, which became legendary for the length and size of its tusks. Shawu’s tusks are particularly special, with an astonishing length of more than 3 meters, making it one of the elephants with the longest tusks in the world. Its huge and majestic size symbolizes the strength and dignity of African elephants. However, Shawu is also a witness to the overhunting of elephants by humans, and its tusks are highly sought after in the ivory trading market, reflecting the exploitation of wildlife resources by humans. This Shawu elephant sculpture vividly restores the majestic image of Shawu.
The sculpture shows Shawu walking with powerful limbs, showing the elephant’s sense of power. Its huge tusks are the most eye-catching part of the sculpture, and the carving uses the contrast between the ivory’s luster and the body to highlight Shawu’s iconic long tusks. The overall lines of the sculpture are smooth, and the skin texture is very detailed, showing the thick skin texture of African elephants. The elephant’s long ears and raised trunk convey its majesty and agility. The Shawu Elephant sculpture not only realistically reproduces Shawu’s appearance, but also gives it a dynamic vitality, as if the giant elephant is stepping out of the jungle, demonstrating its dominance as the king of the grassland.
