Reviews for Butterfly Park

Centered on the park's elaborate art nouveau gateway, MacKay's lyrical paper collage and diorama constructs feature layered details and out-of-focus backgrounds for a sense of depth. Brightly patterned butterflies, delicate flowers, and human figures pose like gracefully off-balance dancers... Worthy of theme and equally pleasing to the eye and the spirit. --Kirkus Reviews
