"Thematically the choice of the hare is really quite a rich and expressive sort of model;... the investment of human attributes into the animal world is a very well practiced device, in literature and film etcetera and is really quite poignant. And on a practical level, if you consider what conveys situation and meaning and feeling in a human figure, the range of expression is in fact far more limited than the device of investing an animal - a hare especially - with the expressive attributes of a human being. The ears, for instance, are really able to convey far more than a squint in an eye of a figure, or a grimace on the face of a model." (The artist quoted in: Barry Flanagan: Recent Sculpture, New York, 1994, p. 5)
