many in stars ago again consists of a set of panels depicting a dragonfly naiad during its aquatic instar stages. The images are digitally composed through collages of the artist’s hands and feet, with phalanges contorted to approximate insect anatomy. These configurations operate through resemblance, where human extremities are reorganised into provisional alignments with the insect’s form. Multiple such collages, each comprising different assemblies of body parts, are layered within a single frame, producing a palimpsestic image in which no singular configuration is fully stable.
