Fully exercising the transformative potential of the close-up, Paul Clipson brings us face-to-face with the beguiling strangeness of a bee drawing nectar and a butterfly working its wings. The so-called “butterfly effect” (in which a single theoretical butterfly flapping its wings can result in a hurricane across the globe) seems freshly tangible after this installment of the Compound Eyes cycle.
