Inspired by observations in my own garden, the concept for the Bright Fly Pendant had been brewing in my mind for months. Through photographing scenes in my own garden I can closely observe the plants and insects that live amongst it. I have always been attracted to the less 'celebrated' creatures in our world, as every living organism plays a role in our ecosystem and is equally important. When photographing the Lucilia sericata (Green Bottle Fly) it stuck me how intensely beautiful they are. When zooming in on my photographs I was able to see their full beauty, their green or copper bodies were iridescent like a pearl, and their striking red eyes shone like rubies. It was then, I realized, I had to create a Bright! ambassador to be worn, to represent their species.
This piece is hand crafted in Sterling Silver with fine pattern work hand engraved into the wings.
