Trogonoptera

Trogonoptera is a vessel formed from three long embroidered butterfly wings. By magnifying the wings’ minute textures and rhythms, the piece draws attention to the richness of nature at a moment of mounting environmental threat. The work is delicate yet resilient, its floating stitches echoing both the vulnerability and balance of natural ecosystems. By foregrounding small, easily overlooked details, Trogonoptera invites viewers to slow down, look more closely, and reflect on their connection and responsibility to the natural world.
