A digital fine art print with images of a beetle and other insects, exploring how much people's outer shell shields themselves. 2008.

17" x 22"

Edition of 10. Original archival pigment digital print on Crane Museo max rag paper.

This work is based on an original mixed media piece that touches on the complexities of self-presentation. Isa was exploring how much people rely on facades and presentation as they move through their lives to shield themselves. From what? Genuine predator or wispy phantom? People often reveal layer after layer, only with great care and trepidation. 2008.
