How can I incorporate a butterfly with this theme?

I'm doing an art project about Injustice. My object given is a butterfly. Give me an idea of a scene/image that could incorporate a butterfly with injustice. I've already had some idea of it by a butterfly being caught by a human, but I need a more specific scene. Any ideas? :) Thanks in advance|||How about a butterfly sitting on the scales of justice (the beam balance) %26amp; a human hand, using any implement, trying to scrape off its colorful scales so that it is being left colorless !


Play on words as well as images. Moreover, it becomes all the more potent because it'll appear as a Plea for justice from the butterfly since it has alighted on the scales.


And since it represents the injustice being done to the little insect, show the scale/balance of justice Tilted [unfair, unjust].





Hope this inspires too


All the very best %26amp; have fun :-)|||Butterflies are also often killed and stuck to display boards with a pin through them. They also have markings that can look like eyes. Justice is represented in artwork as being blind (with a blindfold), holding scales.





You could take the symbolism of justice and turn it to represent it's opposite, using the butterfly as the background.|||You can draw a person who was served injustice, like a cute, little girl in hand cuffs, with an icecream spilt on the ground (arrested for littering) with her hands open and a butterfly in her hands. that would be a really good message. hope this helps|||Perhaps a child version of the blindfolded "justice" ripping the wings off of a butterfly... that could be a symbol of stripping them of their freedom. here, i made a sketch of my idea for you.|||How about a bunch of butterflies in a meadow, and a person jumping at one.
