Design Narrative

A moth had been getting into the client's kitchen every night for a week, and they became attached to it before identifying it as a pest. That reversal — admiration arriving before classification — became the brief. The branches were added late, once it was clear the moth alone sat too flatly against the chest and needed something to be caught in. Symmetry is deliberate but not exact, since a specimen pinned perfectly would read as dead rather than paused.
