PURE EVIL
Created 'Forest Camo Gorilla' for the Tusk Gorilla Trail 2023
Forest Camo Gorilla
PURE EVIL’s gorilla sculpture serves as a powerful symbol, shedding light on the precarious situation faced by mountain gorillas due to the threat of poaching.
Pure Evil
Pure Evil is a graffiti and street artist. Fanged Pure Evil bunny rabbits are the artist’s trademark which stemmed from Pure Evil’s remorse after shooting a rabbit when he was young. The success of his Nightmare Series has taken him all over the world.
