This piece is entitled Kesin (Incarnate in Japanese). It is one of a series called ‘Chou Chou’ and was inspired by an old Japanese proverb, whereby a butterfly becomes a metaphor for the soul and leaves the sleeping body nightly, embarking upon a transcendental flight. In this Image
lines representing butterfly flight paths weave across the image, making visible the form of a woman.
