Canada's Two Bear Trainers (2023)
By Josu Irigaray
From Spain, Bilbao
"Canada's Two Bears" presents a whimsical yet thought-provoking scene where two bears, donning boxing gloves, face each other in a standoff. The simple, hand-drawn style adds a playful tone to the artwork while subtly addressing themes of competition, coexistence, and the relationship between humans and the natural world.
