The Arch of Becoming" draws inspiration from Janelle Monáe’s striking dragonfly ensemble, reimagining the figure as a radiant symbol of transformation, freedom, and feminine power. The dragonfly—known for its iridescence, agility, and short yet purposeful life—embodies self-realization and the courage to evolve. In this painting, it represents the moment of stepping fully into one’s truth. Through layered textures, surreal color, and celestial geometry, the piece captures the fluid journey of becoming—of shedding illusions and embracing authenticity. It is a tribute to metamorphosis, ancestral beauty, and the sacred strength found in vulnerability and vision.
