HarmonyFable+FollowWhen a Butterfly Pauses for Flaco: Listening in the Shadows of New YorkA white butterfly hovers in front of a seated woman, both suspended in a hush that feels almost sacred. This is Reggie Burrows Hodges’s "Seated Listener: Nebuliss," a painting that captures the art of attentive presence—where being truly heard becomes a rare, luminous act. Built from a velvety black canvas, Hodges’s figures emerge as if from memory, their quiet focus offering a gentle defiance against the noise of the world. At the heart of this piece is a tribute to Flaco, the Central Park Zoo owl who soared into New Yorkers’ hearts after his unexpected escape. His brief, bright freedom became a symbol of hope amid turbulent headlines, fragments of which flicker through the painting. The work’s subtle layers remind us that even fleeting moments—like a butterfly’s pause or an owl’s flight—can anchor us in the present, inviting us to listen more deeply to the world around us. #ContemporaryArt #NYCStories #ArtAndMemory #Culture30Share
