Swarm: Devan Horton

In the Swarm series I am exploring the concept of emergent intelligence in species that survive as a collective. By using the vehicle of the swarm I am able to create what appears to be abstract drawings while rendering the subjects realistically. I recreate feelings of being overwhelmed by not only the number of subjects repeated but by also the level in which they are rendered. I want to confront these feelings and fear while still showing how beautiful each one of these occurrences can be.
