The bird is captured mid-dive, wings swept downward and tail feathers splayed, each incised line emphasizing the aerodynamics of flight. The head is angled forward with focused precision. Ottochie’s background as a printmaker in the Kinngait print shop is evident in his attention to surface patterning and clarity of line, which translate seamlessly into stoneProvenance
