American sculptor sees beauty in bats

AMERICAN artist Copper Tritscheller considers bats to be “misunderstood” and has created a series of sculptures based on the nocturnal mammal.

This exhibition titled “Proud Copper” gives people an opportunity for people to look beyond the blood-sucking stereotype commonly associated with the animal.

Bats help the agricultural industry by eating insects, yet they are underrated by people and are rapidly losing their natural habitats.

Tritscheller, who grew up in Georgia, United States, is a self-taught sculptor who portrays animals to tell truths about human society.
