The Majesty of all Beings

The Coronation Project is a call to re-examine how we may (or may not) consider the innate nobility of all creatures with whom we share this planet. In some of our favourite animal archetypes, we love and revere stories of kingly lions, protective mother bears and ever-loyal dogs. But beyond the mythologies and attitudes we have towards “some”, have we missed the mark in recognising that all animals are rightly masters of their own kingdoms, deserving to live in full dignity and agency?

Real-life stories

The project is a collection of illustrated true stories where animals have been unjustly—sometimes cruelly treated by humans.

“A mother swan mourns for her unborn young, whose eggs were destroyed by vandals who had launched bricks at her nest. Her mate, so frightened by the attack, fled the nest in terror, never to return.”

The Coronation… A Reimagining

Through the power of visual storytelling, we witness an alternative reality, a different fate. One befitting the full nobility, dignity and beauty of the individual’s story.

QUEEN BEA of the BROKEN HEARTS

“Bea, Queen Mother, stands proudly, protectively over her yet-to-be born. Her heart, an intersection of the delicate and the fierce, worn most befittingly as her great crown.”
