Helen Ashton made the print Maggot Brain in 2012. The work shows a close-up study of a fly’s head, rendered in delicate lines and soft shading. The image zooms in on the insect’s compound eyes and proboscis, turning something small into a detailed portrait.

Tap Maggot Brain in the app to see how a single fly becomes a quiet meditation on texture and form.
