Artwork description
Long-tailed Blue captures the quiet elegance of the New Zealand native long-tailed blue butterfly, its wings unfurled in a moment of suspended stillness. Meticulously rendered in artist pencils, the fine details of the butterfly's form emerge through the luminous surface of drafting film, allowing light to pass softly through the delicate structure. The work invites contemplation of fragility and flight, echoing the impermanence of encounters with the natural world. This piece celebrates the grace of small things, drawing the viewer into a gentle meditation on wonder, transience, and the overlooked beauty that flutters at the edge of attention.
