This project consists of a series of pollinators insects with wings covered with gold leaf and isolated in a neutral background.

As an alchemical process of spiritual liberation the precious metal becomes a kind of universal panacea that symbolizes the attempt to overcome the boundaries of existence, indefinitely prolonging their lives through its inherent nature of incorruptibility. It’s a sort of symbolic key to win this menacing organic decay.
