In honor of World Rhino Day on September 22, a collective of renowned artists and charities is launching Traditions Speak – the White Rhino and the Himba Tribe of Namibia, a limited-edition lenticular photo and digital collection designed to support the Rhino Momma Project’sefforts to save endangered white rhinos.

A Global Call to Action: Save the Rhinos
“Art, storytelling, & charity unite to create ripples of change that lead to global conservation.” — James-Scott Wong
With white rhinos teetering on the brink of extinction, Traditions Speak embodies a vital movement toward urgent, meaningful action. Led by James-Scott Wong, author of the children’s book Pierre’s Promise of the Deep, and visual artists like D13EGO, Tara Banksand PXL.HOUSE, along with Horatius Impact, this initiative spotlights the urgent need to protect rhinos from extinction.
“Protecting the white rhinos is a time-honored tradition, safeguarding the ancient lineage of one of Earth’s most majestic creatures,” said Jaco Muller, founder of the Rhino Momma Project. “This is more than a project—it’s a mission to preserve life.”
Uniting Art, Storytelling, and Charity for Global Conservation”We’re uniting art, storytelling, and charity to create ripples of meaningful change that turn into waves of global conservation action,”added James-Scott. The Traditions Speak project demonstrates the power of collaboration, bringing together artists, conservationists, and storytellers in a unified effort to raise awareness and drive action on a global scale.
Urgent Need for Support: The Rhino Momma ProjectThe Rhino Momma Project, founded by Jaco Muller, has successfully bred over 160 white rhino calves, contributing to the stabilization and conservation of this endangered species. However, recent droughts in Africa have threatened sustainable farming efforts, underscoring the urgent need for ongoing support. In response, Muller established a sustainable farming program powered by renewable energy and opened the Kifaru Luxury Lodge and Bush Camp, yet the looming water scarcity means the Rhino Momma Project requires additional assistance to continue its vital conservation work.
Inspiring Action Through Storytelling: Pierre’s Promise of the DeepInspired by their visit to Namibia and the Rhino Momma Project, father-daughter authors James-Scott and Eugenie Wong have integrated conservation themes into their children’s book series, including Pierre’s Promise of the Deep. Each book sale supports rhino conservation. Their local community has also joined the effort, withplans to install a rhino sculpture at the Children’s Sculpture Zoo in Haddonfield, NJ, in honor of the Rhino Momma Project.
