NYATI II - The FLY VI

This work is inspired by the ceremonial beauty of decorated cattle, animals that naturally command admiration through their scale, ornamentation, and presence. Yet amidst these imposing figures, a small dragonfly quietly claims the viewer’s attention. The fly is not intended as an interruption, but as a reminder that significance is not always tied to grandeur. While the decorated cattle celebrate tradition, identity, and strength, the fly introduces a subtle shift in perception. It asks us to pause and notice what would otherwise be ignored.
