A moth suspended in Greek valerian, dogwood flowers, and daydreams. She wanders in the daylight from imaginary groves to ephemeral river beds. What else does she daydream of? I find myself daydreaming of being her.
About the Artist:
An Iranian-American illustrator, Niky depicts flora and fauna with intricate lines and bright colors inspired by their Persian Culture. Their work uses symbolism and a personal mythology to communicate deep emotions and celebrate our connections with the natural world. When they aren’t working in the studio, Niky can be found brewing a decadent cup of tea, meandering through antique shops, going on hikes with plant identification guides, or playing D&D with friends.
