This work begins with what is most easily dismissed: the fragile remains of insects, fleeting bodies marked by decay and impermanence. Through a process that transforms organic matter into solid silver, these forms are arrested in time, suspended between life and artifact. Silver, at once luminous and heavy, becomes both preservation and elevation, heightening specimen to ritual object. Delicacy is met with undeniable weight; disappearance is answered with endurance.

At its core, the work asks for a shift in perspective. By enlarging attention rather than scale, it invites the viewer into a dialogue between the micro and the monumental, where the smallest lives are rendered precious and enduring. The tension between decay and immortality, fragility and permanence, reframes silver not merely as material but as witness, an artifact of reverence. In encountering these forms, the viewer is asked to reconsider value, to recognize beauty in unlikely spaces, and to leave with a heightened awareness of the quiet elegance embedded within the natural world.
