About "City Versus Nature"

The crysilis of the Layman butterfly inspired me. It is truly nature's jewel, because this pupa reflects gold. I have a eco tourism business named "Butterfly Valley" with my husband and we promote butterflies. This painting is to communicate that humans can plant butterfly host plants to attract more colour into their lives.

About Salome

Salome High is a contemporary South African artist who studied Fine Art at the University of Pretoria. Her work reflects the spirit of the times, embracing the ever-evolving zeitgeist while remaining rooted in a philosophy of simplicity. Inspired by Le Corbusier's famous maxim, "Less is more," she seeks to distill her subjects to their essential beauty and character.
Working primarily from photographic references, Salome transforms observed reality into expressive, contemporary artworks. Her current body of work focuses on wildlife, capturing the strength, elegance, and individuality of each animal through a fresh artistic perspective. By introducing subtle elements of glamour and refinement, she creates a unique visual dialogue that celebrates the natural world while inviting viewers to see familiar subjects in a new light.
