Rana Begum, WP539 (watercolour), 2023© Rana BegumThis work was inspired by The Wild Escape.Begum says, ‘I took inspiration from the colours and symmetryin the butterflies at the Natural History Museum. Thesymmetrical pattern becomes playful on the gridded paper.Watercolours allow me to explore mark–making and theinherent tonal variety of the medium, allowing each uniquemark to undercut the work’s formal regularity.’
