Tiger Moth

€2,350.00

By Robert Jackson – View Artist’s Profile

This landscape is a view from a forest near my home towards a spring sunset. The trees are Ash and increasingly we are seeing the progression of what seems to be Ash Dieback across our area, with pockets of withering trees becoming visible.

Description

This landscape is a view from a forest near my home towards a spring sunset. The trees are Ash and increasingly we are seeing the progression of what seems to be Ash Dieback across our area, with pockets of withering trees becoming visible.

While walking in the forest my wife and son came upon an array of Tiger Moth wings. There was no evidence of bodies, these must have degraded or been consumed. These wings are a wonderful example of Aposematism, where creatures exhibit patterned warning signs to alert other animals of their toxicity. 

I have placed a hint of a human form within the painted pattern and evidence of the encroachment of humankind with bollards, a Mercedes car bonnet and headlight beams in the foreground.

There is hope however as the sun will inevitably rise again.
