MRI Butterfly

The Butterfly in the Brain refers to MRI brain scans and Rorschach tests as devices explicating brain morphology and psychologically driven projective techniques. In this body of work, Anker superimposes an image of the same butterfly on various ink blots placed within identical MRI brain scans. She explores the ways in which figure/ground relationships alter human perception.
