“The Burnet moth is common in coastal areas, dense with grasses. It’s bright, striking colour and distinctive five spots are an evolutionary warning to predators. The Burnet has the ability to emit deadly Hydrogen Cyanide when attacked.

Moths have long been associated in folklore with transformation and rebirth. Moths are drawn to the light, which can represent enlightenment, spiritual growth, and the pursuit of knowledge”

Each of Danni’s pieces are original, unique and produced by Danni from start finish here in her studio. Each piece is inked, painted and gilded onto the reverse of toughened glass. After completion the piece is flipped over to reveal the artwork through the glass and framed in a 35mm deep frame, creating a gap between the artwork on the glass and the white backboard, which creates the shadow effect you can see behind the butterflies and Bees giving the whole piece an almost 3D quality. These shadows can move and dance across the backboard when the piece is hung in natural light, like in a lovely bright room , but will look equally as good under spots or in any well lit space. Once evening comes the these pieces take on a whole new aspect as the metallic leaf radiates its own luminescence.
