The wall of a pink and orange abstract mural appears to be torn, with part of the wall being peeled away like paper.
 

As the chrysalis is shed, the veiled, authentic Daughter can finally be revealed.

No longer hidden behind a protective barrier,  

she has been transformed through metamorphosis into a butterfly…

and merged with the rest of HEART

“I decided to temporarily cover part of this wall with plastic to preserve the mural, ‘Daughter,’ underneath. It wasn’t ideal because the plastic buckled and tore if I used too much pressure with the brush. Later when I was photographing the installation I spontaneously began tearing the plastic down the middle, so the butterfly/’Daughter’ could be seen. Bit by bit as the plastic partition was torn, the hidden butterfly emerged. I hadn’t planned this symbolism from the beginning, but as I’ve encountered with other projects like ‘The End of Shame’ and ‘HURRICANE,’ chapters of a larger healing narrative often unfold through the process of following a creative trail.

The wall in an abstract immersive mural installation is peeled away to reveal painted brushstrokes underneath, like a butterfly coming out of the cocoon. The pieces of wall that have been peeled off are draped on the painted floor.
