Artwork description:

This artwork features a meticulously arranged grid of toasted bread slices, each exhibiting uniform golden-brown lines, reflecting a sense of precision and repetition. The consistent pattern is disrupted by a single square adorned with a butterfly, introducing an unexpected element of surprise and whimsy. This singular deviation draws immediate attention, creating a focal point within the symmetrical layout. The juxtaposition of the organic butterfly against the rigid, industrial aesthetic of the toast evokes a contrast between nature and structure. The artist masterfully uses this contrast to challenge perceptions of monotony and uniformity, inviting viewers to explore themes of conformity and individuality. The composition's simplicity, paired with its singular anomaly, generates a striking visual impact.

Materials used:

Archival pigment ink print on canvas
