The Beetle and the Butterfly was exhibited at Window 99 in Melbourne and M16 in Canberra in 2011.
The Beetle and the Butterfly, a collaborative exhibition by Claire Pendrigh and Michele Grimston, explores an interplay between beauty and functionality. The installation of small moments, created from found objects and craft materials, are set in the context of a magical night-time garden in which the ordinary becomes extraordinary.
