This year’s we reprised an old favourite of ours. This peice is title “Butterflies around a hole” . Inspired by the migration of the monarh butterfly and our impact on the planet changing the time of their migrations.
Each butterfly was cut from recycled packaging and paper, the patterns from which create the marking on the butterflies wings.
