DRAGONFLY AND BUTTERFLY
Take Wing
When creating fused glass art,
I have been inspired by the symbol of the dragonfly and the butterfly.
During these isolating times of the pandemic, I have created new art and added to existing glass pieces with the images of dragonflies and butterflies.
I have looked for strength, light, color, change and the chance to take wing, as well as a deeper meaning of life these days.
Dragonfly
Having flown the eartH for 300 million years,
Dragonflies symbolize our ability to overcome times of hardship.
They can remind us to take time to reconnect with our own strength,
courage and happiness.
“In almost every part of the world, the Dragonfly symbolizes change, transformation, adaptability, and self-realization.
They are spiritual creatures connected to light and change.
The change that is often referred to has its source in mental and emotional maturity and understanding the deeper meaning of life.”
Butterfly
Butterflies are deep and powerful representations of life.
Many cultures associate the butterfly with our souls.
And some cultures the butterfly is a symbol of change, joy and color.
The Christian religion sees the butterfly as a symbol of resurrection.
Around the world, people view the butterfly as representing endurance, change, hope, and life.
