The artwork is based on the map of NewYork City. Colorful shapes on a black background trace the city's structure, specifically the area around Central Park. The body of the butterfly is represented by the shape of Central Park, with the text "Other-ness is my strength" inscribed on it. Notably, the location of ELiTY Art, the artistic organization standing behind the Otherness series, is highlighted. This geometric shape is colored in the organization's signature colors: gold-yellow and dark blue.New York was chosen for its inclusivity and the diversity of its cultures and races.Additionally, it was selected because the Otherness series will begin its presentation in this city. This piece emphasizes how the vibrant mosaic of New York exemplifies the unifying potential of diversity and serves asa fitting starting point for exploring the theme of otherness.
