Estelle Graf - Ambivalenta Andy

Artist: Estelle Graf

A colorful motif depicting a monkey and a pig in human clothes outside the restaurant Tranan in Stockholm. "I find something comedic in the whole phenomenon of being human, and perhaps we are more amusing to portray in certain neighborhoods than others. It's also convenient to use an animal head to capture a character. In short, I think the contrived methods we've developed to disguise our heritage are both touching and absurd. There's something tantalizing in the thought that we are all just pigs and frogs who have developed sophisticated manners." - Estelle Graf
