Description: | 'Atrophaneura' is a species of butterfly (Atrophaneura Alcinous) found in China, Japan and Taiwan. Intended as a flower vase, 'Atrophaneura' plays on the relationship between flowers and butterflies. Of this piece Ndidi Ekubia states 'I wanted to create a form that had a flow starting from the centre and twisting out into the air. Not to replicate the wings of a butterfly but to use the concept of the wings opening out, ready to embrace the flower.' | Publisher: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Temporal: | Production date: 2002 | Source: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Creator: | Ndidi Ekubia | Identifier: | http://www.twmuseums.org.uk/artonline/se... | Go to resource |
