Photographer Brad Wilson creates studio portraits of wild animals that look directly into the camera. "The strongest connection with any object, I think, human or animal, is the look," says Wilson. At the very beginning of the project, the photographer realized that it is very difficult to get a direct look into the camera, but it is simply necessary — this is how the picture will be most convincing. "There were cases when the animal never looked directly at me, and sometimes the contact of views happened only once — for a couple of seconds," says Wilson.

Usually Wilson uses special verbal commands to shoot animals, but this time the method of working with the animal was completely different — waiting and watching, a kind of meditation in the midst of organized chaos.

"I have found that in the midst of our modern human civilization with its technological complexities, animals still remain strong symbols of the simpler life and wildlife that we have lost, and most importantly, remind us that we are not alone, we are not separate - we are part of a rich and interconnected diversity life".
