The Small Things

‘The Small Things’ speaks to moments that pass quickly, gestures that seem minor, and presences we forget to notice. And yet, it is often these that hold everything together. In nature, as in life, it is the quietest things that leave the deepest trace. This work is a quiet tribute to the small things that shape the world. The butterfly—admired for its beauty—moves softly through blooms, its presence fleeting but essential. Fragile, often overlooked, it carries more than colour; it carries meaning.

This artwork is part of the winning entries for the Moreton Bay Region Outdoor Art Prize – 2025.

The Outdoor Art Prize is a City of Moreton Bay initiative, and banners will be on display until 15 June.
