In this artwork, I intended to combine digital art and photography in order to subtly convey the importance of women to have social and political freedom. To convey this, I included butterflies, which often represent hope, joy, and change. I blended in the butterflies with a photo of my friend in order to associate those concepts with women.

Additionally, I used a double exposure technique in Adobe Photoshop and blended my friend in with a photo of flowers to express that ultimately, representation of women aka “the butterflies” are what allow women to thrive and “bloom.” I intended to make this piece of art dreamlike and happy, to exhibit liberation.
