Mariposa
Mariposa
"Mariposa" is a breathtaking and ethereal analog assemblage, measuring 30" x 30", and priced at $25,000. This unique, one-of-a-kind work presents a woman enveloped in a soft, powder blue hue, surrounded by a kaleidoscope of butterflies that seem to flutter and dance around her. Sam HEYDT's enchanting piece is a poignant exploration of transformation, beauty, and the human experience. The woman's serene presence is juxtaposed with the whimsical, ephemeral nature of the butterflies, raising questions about the fragility and impermanence of life. Are the butterflies a symbol of hope and renewal, or a reminder of the transience of beauty and youth? Accompanied by a QR code, this innovative work also incorporates cutting-edge technology, allowing viewers to unlock an Augmented Reality (AR) animation that brings the butterflies to life, their delicate wings beating in a mesmerizing display of color and movement. "Mariposa" is a captivating and contemplative work that invites the viewer to step into a world of wonder and magic, and is a must-have for collectors and institutions seeking to engage with the most pressing issues of our era.
