My nominee for artist of the week is AP 3D Art & Design student, Lily Dron. Here is her inquiry for this particular exploration:

"Inquiry: My piece is a butterfly, to me, it represents the fragility of society. Each section of the wings show a different concept that can be looked at negatively or positively based on your perspective. My idea is that the butterfly represents our own fragility, the idea that we can want better for ourselves and in a world that is so divided, one answer isn't possible. Our difference in opinions changes throughout our lives and similarly as the butterfly grows so will our perspectives. When I was little, the values we were taught were to listen when someone was talking and to try and understand what they were saying. To me the butterfly shows how I feel in today's world, because it feels like no one listens to each other anymore. The butterfly is gentle but the meaning on its wings are heard because they are colorful and loud. But like the butterfly we may have to be loud to be heard. I think that the butterfly is fragile like all of us and also strong. It is our strength in our own opinion and hearing each other that makes our perspective meaningful."

Congratulations - Mr. Bill
