I Spy Art All Around Me at the Smallest Museum in St Paul

Workhorse Coffee Bar 2399 University Avenue, St Paul

My work will be on display during the month of October at the Smallest Museum in St Paul, located just outside Workhorse Coffee Bar. These butterflies are made from origami-folded wrapping paper. The patterns on the paper were created from photos I took while standing on the sidewalk in front of the Smallest Museum in St Paul. I shot photos of everyday things: a light rail train, traffic signs, and brick patterns on buildings. Each photo was transformed into a repeating symmetrical pattern, printed on paper and folded into a butterfly, showing the art you can find in unexpected places. You can see all of the original photos, watch video of folding the butterflies and read more about the art at: www.beckarahn.com/i-spy-butterflies
