IOtA: What projects are you working on now?
TL: I am preparing for a show called "Artprize" which takes place in Grand Rapids, Michigan in September and October. I am showing at a gallery downtown and plan to cover a 6ft. diameter sphere with 2,000 of my cyanotype butterflies. I have some 520 more to finish before the 12th of September.
I am also working on a stop-motion animation that chronicles the swarm as my magnetic butterflies explore NYC. I am working with a fellow Swattie Amy Vachal '11— she wrote a beautiful song that I am using to set the tone of the animation. That should be finished before Artprize as well.
I am also making a life-sized humpback whale in my studio in Newark. He is descending into the floor of the space and all you can see are the flukes.
