The "Urban Butterfly" is a fascinating component that emerged organically during the creation of "Act," the third piece in a digital graffiti series. This element serves multiple purposes: Breaking Symmetry: The "Urban Butterfly" was introduced to disrupt the visual symmetry of a swimmer in a pool, adding dynamic interest and complexity to the composition. Illustrative Canvas: It acts as a canvas that reflects the myriad thoughts and ideas of the artist, making it a deeply personal and expressive element within the artwork. Typography Connections: There is an interplay between the typography on the butterfly and the base composition, creating a cohesive and interconnected visual narrative.
