This piece is a meditation on the monarch butterfly as a timeless symbol of transformation and the fragile journey of the soul. Against a fractured gold leaf background that dissolves into shadow, each butterfly becomes a flicker of light crossing from a gilded world into the intriguing unknown. The piece captures not just the beauty of metamorphosis but the poignant tension of change—inviting the viewer to reflect on the light we carry as we move through life’s shifting landscapes  🦋
