"Black Lagoon" by Hunt Slonem is a captivating monochromatic work that radiates with mystery and quiet glamour. A group of his iconic bunnies emerges in silver outline against a deep black field, their forms rendered with elegant simplicity and rhythmic grace. The surface shimmers with diamond dust, casting a celestial glow that animates the composition with light and movement. This luminous material transforms the darkness into a dynamic space—evoking moonlight on water or starlight in shadow. Meditative and otherworldly, "Black Lagoon" elevates Slonem’s signature motif into a sparkling nocturne, where repetition becomes ritual and presence becomes poetry.
