About The Artwork
Satanic Butterfly (2022) Phosphorus tissues and cells float in space in a membrane permeated with spawn and fibres - something is transforming into something else but it’s not clear what that is. Masses of cells form matter which then forms a cloak, floating in space and time. A cloak of protection or an outer shell that will metamorphosis into something else? Many creatures metamorphosis into something else - frogs, snails and crustaceans. The butterfly (and moth) undergo a complete metamorphosis from egg, larva, pupa and adult. Satanic Butterfly captures this moment of transformation in time and presents an eerie, uncanny feeling of something beyond the ordinary that arouses a strange and mysterious atmosphere. Colourful layers of marks, lines and textures emerge from/to darkness.
