ARTIST’S REFLECTION
“There’s something captivating about the focus in a fish’s eye just before it strikes. Big-Eye is my tribute to that instinct, that split-second decision that defines life in the ocean.”
— J. Libro
Big-Eye - Signature Collection
CURATOR’S NOTE
Big-Eye captures the alertness and power of one of the ocean’s fastest and most formidable hunters.
The expressive eye and dynamic form give this piece a sense of movement and purpose, frozen in a moment of focus.
John Libro’s use of layered driftwood creates depth, texture, and a feeling of strength—perfectly suited to this ocean predator.
