About the Item

Danza has a deep appreciation for the feelings of wonder and awe that come from being in nature. She tries to capture this experience with her immersive paintings, while also paying homage to the complex, overlapping ecological relationships of her subjects. Swallowtail butterflies, are common visitors to apple blossoms in spring, feeding on their nectar as an early food source, which makes them lovely pollinators for the trees alongside bees. The complexity of these small interactions and the spaces they create provide the backdrop to our daily musings but also the existence we sometimes take for granted. Danza hopes that viewers take a bit of that ineffable feeling of well being that comes from awe and wonder with them and that it brings them a bit closer to each other and the natural world we are all a part of.
