The arowana is a prehistoric, slender freshwater fish found in the tropical waters of South America, mostly in the Amazon jungle where it inhibits the flooded forest.

Arowana fish is an exotic spontaneous element while the imaginary city above is the phenomenon of Civilization.

Such classification can be correlated with the nature of man, combining in himself two elements- rational and logical on one hand and emotional and sensual on the other.

The city pipes and rain forest roots are fused to become the transitional element of the artwork. Big City Jungle has become a famous idiom in modern times.

In some cultures, certain species of arowana are thought to be symbols of good luck and prosperity as the “ gold” fish that is known to bring good luck and fortune in European tales.
