Fading Wings - Painting

$7,000.00

This large-scale diptych presents a butterfly divided across two panels, rendered with contrasting color intensity and surface detail. The work references research showing that habitat loss and deforestation are favoring duller butterflies over brighter ones, subtly altering patterns of survival and visibility.

The split composition introduces distance and imbalance, allowing the image to be read as both unified and disrupted. The painting functions as a restrained, commanding presence that anchors the exhibition with scale and quiet urgency.
