products art Three installations bring the drama By Alissa Ponchione Butterfly Bloom The details: Kevin Barry Art Advisory (KBAA) conceived the large-scale Butt erfl y Bloom installation as an immersive art experience that " fl ows through the entirety of the property, " says KBAA president Allison M. Barry. Constructed of 150 powdercoated die-cast Anise Swallowtail butt erfl ies and painted in a rainbow of bold colors, KBAA's in-house artists set out to create a piece that would enliven a variety of public spaces. " Walking into a kaleidoscope of butt erfl ies as you enter a building is a beautiful art element that can make any visitor's experience magical, " says Barry. Additionally, butt erfl ies are the universal symbol of optimism and vitality. " We loved the idea of bringing those themes into the space through imagery of this beautiful migrating species, " she adds.
