So this image is based on a mythical creature called the Manticore and the neighborhood I grew up in. The Manticore has a human head, three rows of teeth and a red lion’s body. It is also a rambunctious man-eater. Bamboo fits into my neighborhood because my street is a double dead end, with my house on one end and a small bamboo farm on the other. It belonged to an old neighbor I never knew. I remember being scolded for playing in the bamboo by my mother, so the Manticore sort of is also her, and the blue shoe sort of is also me. Sooo if you’re reading, HI MOM!
