I chose to use the Luna moth in this piece because it is a powerful metaphor for transformation. Its physical stages of development are a profound representation of growth, change and rebirth. Because the luna moth is a nocturnal creature it is often associated with intuition, dreams and the subconscious mind. The short life span of the moth is believed to encourage us to appreciate the present and find beauty in the temporary.
Mystical death and rebirth have been part of numerous cultures throughout history. These myths can often convey a psychological metaphor for individual transformation, where death signifies the dissolution of the old self and rebirth represents the emergence of a more enlightened being.
This piece is made using copper, brass, acrylic paint and 6mm cubic zirconia gemstones.
The piece measures 23” x 19” x 1”
