// Richard Orlinski's Wild Kong Oil is a striking 2015 sculpture crafted in resin, depicting a powerful gorilla holding an oil barrel above its head. This work showcases Orlinski’s distinctive, faceted style, with angular surfaces that give the gorilla a modern, geometric appearance, blending primal strength with contemporary aesthetics. The black resin enhances the sculpture's imposing presence, while the oil barrel symbolizes industrialization and environmental concerns. Orlinski’s Wild Kong series often reflects themes of nature and civilization, inviting viewers to consider the balance between human progress and the natural world, underscored here by the gorilla’s stance of defiance and resilience.
