In Life & Death, Lingua presents a mesmerizing meditation on duality—where beauty and decay coexist in radiant harmony. A skull, formed entirely of blooming flowers and vibrant butterflies, takes center stage. Every petal, wing, and shadow is painstakingly drawn in gel ink, weaving a tapestry of color and symbolism. What appears as a memento mori becomes, instead, a celebration of regeneration, transformation, and the cyclical nature of life.
This piece is both haunting and beautiful, evoking the surreal elegance found in contrast. The use of UV-reactive inks gives the work an added layer of magic, glowing under blacklight as if the flowers and butterflies themselves are alive and pulsing with energy.
