Description

"Mimicry" Self-portrait, 2017 Mimicry is the biological concept where species (e.g. a butterfly) try to mimic either a more dangerous or a non-threatening species, to avoid predation. Mimicry has many forms, and its classification is often based on function with respect to the mimic (e.g. avoiding harm). Defensive or protective mimicry takes place when an organism is able to avoid harmful encounters by deceiving enemies into treating them as something else (thus literally hiding in plain sight). The piece is inspired by my time as a MSc +PhD student in natural science academia, where the majority of people are men, so women often try to blend in by dressing more masculine or downplaying their femininity.
