In a striking contrast of light and shadow, The Red Butterfly captures a suspended moment between two seemingly opposite beings: a chimpanzee with a wise expression and a delicate red butterfly perched on its nose. The simplicity of the scene hides a profound symbolic power.
The work invites us to meditate on the encounter between instinct and grace, strength and fragility. The monkey's gentle gaze and the butterfly's fragile elegance evoke a silent dialogue between the animal and the poetic, the instinctive and the ephemeral.
Jean-Marie Gitard questions here our connection to the living and to the pure beauty of contemplation.
