To The Bone
'To The Bone' is an art initiative by South African artist, Sonny, which aims to raise funds and awareness for endangered wildlife before it’s too late.
As part of the project Sonny will be showcasing a series of never-before-seen large scale canvas's and hand painted sculptures in his debut exhibition in New York. The exhibition marks the culmination of a worldwide tour of mural painting in various cities around the world , including The Netherlands, Canada, Russia, USA, South Africa, UK, and others.
At the exhibition, Sonny is auctioning off one of the original artworks and donating 100% of the proceeds to Project C.A.T.; a collaboration between Discovery Communications and World Wildlife Fund (WWF) that aims to ensure a healthy habitat for future generations of tigers by helping conserve nearly two million acres of protected land in India and Bhutan. In addition he has committed to further donate 10% of all To The Bone artwork sales to Project C.A.T. to support a global effort to double the number of tigers in the wild by 2022.
