Symbology: As a symbol of immortality, resurrection, and transformation, the scarab beetle is one of the most important icons in ancient Egyptian mythology. The copper halo and flowers in this piece are a nod to the scarab’s association with the sun and the idea of rebirth and eternity.

Please note: Colors vary from screen to screen and are represented as accurately as possible. The metallic and iridescent paints and glossy, protective varnish create interesting, shimmering effects depending on the angle of the viewer.

A portion of sales will be donated to Seattle-based organization Creative Justice, whose mission is to build "community with youth most impacted by the school-to-prison-(to-deportation) pipeline. Participants and mentor artists work together to examine the root causes of incarceration, like systemic racism and other forms of oppression, creating art that articulates the power and potential of our communities... while building healing-centered spaces that strengthen the protective factors that help us all to thrive."
