Her Metamorposes

The artwork is a mixed-media portrait of a woman shown from the shoulders up, centered within a rectangular frame resembling a vintage photograph or page. The woman's face is rendered in grayscale with smooth contrasts highlighting her serene expression and upward gaze. Two butterflies dominate the composition: one large, golden and translucent butterfly overlays her chest like a garment or corset, its wings spread wide; a smaller, vibrant orange butterfly rests near the top left corner of the frame, close to her head. The background consists of layered textures—faded text fragments, brushstrokes, and abstract shapes in muted earth tones interspersed with black and white elements. Red floral silhouettes appear to the right of the woman, providing a splash of color and organic contrast. The numbers "1953" are arranged prominently at the bottom in a bold, blocky font, integrating a historical or temporal reference into the piece. Overall, the artwork blends photographic realism with collage and painterly effects to create a poetic and nostalgic atmosphere.
