Metamorphosis
2014
2003 Ford Focus (Steel)
67" x 76" x 58"

Metamorphosis is defined as an extensive alteration in the appearance or character of an animal or object. Much like the transformation of a caterpillar into a butterfly, people experience their own metamorphoses and grow physically as well as mentally throughout their lives. This piece embodies that change by not only being representative of a butterfly, but also removing different parts of a car and reconnecting them to form something completely nonautomotive.
