"Benevolent World! May timid wings awaken A kaleidoscope. The haiku embedded in the titles of this triptych is a call to action. It is a reminder for us to embrace empathy, to find the courage to lift up those who are less fortunate, to work together, and to lead with compassion." Elisabeth Ladwig

"Benevolent World!" is a surreal and imaginative digital triptych. It features three figures in a grassy field with cows grazing in the background. The figures are dressed in long, flowing black dresses, each occupying a different position in the composition. The figure on the left is seated with butterflies resting on her dress, lifting her arms to release more butterflies into the air. The centerpiece of the art is a figure standing in the middle with a giant butterfly covering the figure's face. The figure on the right has transformed into a butterfly, with the dress remaining and flowing upward, revealing a butterfly-like pattern on the underside. This transformational motif continues with a collection of butterflies in various colors fluttering all around and forming slightly arced paths in the sky. The overall tone is dreamlike, evoking themes of nature and metamorphosis.
