(2011) The book 'The Butterfly Workshop’ by Gioconda Belli was an inspiration for the restored butterflies. This children’s book is about a character called Arno, one of the ‘designers of all things’ who secretly wants to create something that is as beautiful as a flower and can fly like a bird. Arno works in a space where butterflies are designed and made, and this idea of a utilitarian workspace for beautiful creatures really appealed to my imagination. I had my own collection of damaged butterflies, so I decided to repair each one differently according to their needs. So in a way, I now have my own workplace with butterflies and give the butterflies a second life. I design body parts and give the insects new names, names that reveal something about their recovery. For example the The 'Blue spinner' looked like it had died the moment it hatched from its cocoon. This lead me to me make the body from a twig wrapped with blue thread. A few threads are still hanging loose , almost as though the butterfly is slowly unwinding and breaking free from its cocoon.
Also, the label's new creative director, Sarah Burton, talks about working with the late, great designer.

A selection of images from the Library of Congress of decaying daguerreotypes whose photographic fixing was far from permanent - like the people they captured the images too were subject to change and decay.

I am at a bit of a loss as to how to list the amazing work of Megan Mitchell... it is art certainly, but it also falls under the heading of fashion, especially since the world of beauty and fashion seems to be both Mitchell's muse and curse. And finally, it seems that she is working within the context of jewelry as accessories, celebrating both the exquisite (using faceted glass and sparkling beads) and the grotesque (she makes wounds, gashes, rashes, boils, scars, and other assorted enemies of commercialized feminine beauty). Her work reminds me of the fine jewelry of Kali Arulpragasam, previously here, who creates wearable bullet holes and knife slashes out of gold and semi-precious stones.
