'Sectus Draconia' is a striking black and white illustration by David Moraton. The artwork is a visual representation of a snake, captured in a dynamic pose with its body twisting around itself. The snake's head is turned to the left side of the image, creating a sense of movement and dynamism. The background is black, which contrasts sharply with the white lines that form the snake, enhancing the overall impact of the piece. The image is presented as a close-up view, focusing on the snake's body in the center of the frame. This perspective allows the viewer to fully appreciate the intricate details of the snake's form and the play of light and shadow on its surface. Conceptually, this artwork may be seen as a commentary on the fluidity and adaptability inherent in nature, as embodied by the snake. The twisting motion of the snake could also symbolize transformation or change, reflecting the ever-evolving nature of life itself. Emotionally, 'Sectus Draconia' evokes a sense of awe and admiration for the beauty and power of the natural world. The stark contrast between the black background and white lines adds to the dramatic effect of the image, drawing the viewer's attention immediately to the snake. In terms of its place within Contemporary Art History, 'Sectus Draconia' is likely to be seen as a representation of the Animalism movement, which seeks to elevate the status of animals in society and challenge traditional views on their role in human culture. The artwork's focus on the snake, an often misunderstood and feared creature, demonstrates Moraton's ability to transform common perceptions into something more profound and thought-provoking. Overall, 'Sectus Draconia' is a powerful illustration that combines artistic skill with deep philosophical insight. It invites viewers to reconsider their assumptions about the natural world and the creatures that inhabit it, encouraging them to see beauty and strength in unexpected places.
