About the Item
Douglas Safranek's Hovering captures the tension of liminal space. Bees and dragonflies appear pinned, and specimen-like, yet achieve loftiness with their wings. Their hyperbolized distance from the earth below further disorients and pushes the distance between realism and surrealism. Safranek's tight, highly detailed brushstrokes add to the insects' uncanny presence.
