Metamorphosis

Metamorphosis - Painting with Nature - 2025

Twisting and turning, looking to escape. Changing, growing, evolving. Slithering and whithering. Nothing. Gone. Dissolved. One becomes another. 

The process is labour intensive, shell by shell, Mandy explores and follows her intuition, searching, sorting, and selecting the right form from thousands for its specific shape, size, and thickness. 

The artwork protrudes from the undulating background. To create more depth and texture. As light moves through the day, the art changes, reflecting light and casting shadows to form a mesmerising, contemporary, and textured artwork.
