The Art of Johnny Depp, The Bunnyman Explained
Join our Fine Art Consultant, Lucy Edwards, as she guides us through the art of Johnny Depp and his latest art collection, The Bunnyman Genesis. Infused with a celestial undertone, this fantastical series of mixed media screen prints overlaid with gold detail is rooted in childhood memories. Some years ago, Depp saw a sketch of a figure by his son, whod been unsettled by a nightmare in which hed appeared. The figure reminded the artist that, decades before, hed also experienced recurring dreams involving this character. That dream kept coming to me. I had it a lot and thats sort of what The Bunnyman became, that figure in the dream. Like all great urban legends or dark fairytales, the myth of The Bunnyman evolved over time and through countless retellings, to take on supernatural elements, existing at a doorway between reality and imagination. Depp perceives him as a powerful guardian and symbol of strength. The Bunnyman is something that I feel very close to. Johnny
