A manifestation of the art of selective breeding, the greyhound is a
sleek and elegant beast. Man, always
eager to bet on something, created the racing dog for his own amusement.
On the exterior of the box figurine
hides a rabbit, often used as an unfortunate lure in the training of
racing greyhounds, and a few small mice are
flying out from under the feet of the speedy hounds. The CL refers
both to Catherine Lawrence, the sculptor's
baby daughter, and Catherine Leicester, an avid HK collector and dedicated
greyhound rescue worker.
On the interior relaxes a retired racer receiving a well-deserved rest.
Once he competed in the tough and
dangerous world of the dog track. Now he feels safe in his newfound
home and curls himself into a sleepy ball of fur.
