Oil on canvas
10 x 12 cm
In this exquisite 10 x 12 cm miniature, the artist explores texture and contrast through a bold, monochromatic lens. Framed by a heavy, matte-black baroque border, the fluffy white moth serves as a singular, luminous focal point. The surrounding field, dusted with faint white specks, evokes a quiet night sky. By isolating the insect within a classical oval cameo format, the work elevates an ephemeral, fragile being into a timeless, jewel-like artifact of dark elegance.
