Fleeting Light - Last Rose

Fleeting Light - Last Rose (2023)

Sarah Macdonald

Energetic greys, pink and ochre scratch-like marks on black resemble the sky on which three butterflies hover over a silhouette of part of a rose plant with two old roses and only a couple of leaves. The butterflies are blue, purple and yellow metallics. Simple dark brown wood frame behind perspex.

I used oil pastels to infuse vibrant energy and alcohol inks to create reflective butterfly-like panels. The Rose’s silhouettes represents mortality, inviting contemplation on life's fleeting beauty—a blend of vibrant vitality and reflective impermanence in a single piece.
