SELECTED WORK

Prompt: Depict an arrangement of objects as exceptions to their surroundings.

In the form of a classic observational still life, I decided to arrange butterflies enclosed in their respective boxes and depict them in a way so that they are clearly exceptions to their surroundings. These colorful, organic, beautiful butterflies are trapped in sharp, rigid, geometric boxes and everything that surrounds them matches their displayed prisons. The innate, evolutionary purpose of a butterfly is to flutter freely and migrate, but the boxes render them unable, and force them into an environment that they visually and clearly don’t belong in.
