English Version | Moth-like Crew

Moth… that bohemian relative of the winged insect that is commonly painted in sepia tones, yet it can be as colorful as the daytime butterfly.

Older and, as a rule, with a predilection for the night, moths seem to be the perfect metaphor for the states of introspection and inner evolution that we all go through and that do not always predict the vibrant connotation usually imagined, thanks to the vivid tonalities of the wings of a butterfly. This stage, as turbulent as it is liberating, rather suggests the subtle grace of a moth that appears semi-incognito, but does not go completely unnoticed. Much like what happens when we look inside ourselves from cycle to cycle, in a dreamlike, almost psychedelic exploration, but above all, transcendent and transformative.
