Wingless We Transform is an artwork exploring the concept of metaphorical metamorphosis in comparison to the biological process. As a trans artist, transformation is a significant part of my journey in life, and this self portrait is highly symbolic of personal change and new beginnings. Through this artwork, I hope to challenge the literal thinking that metamorphosis is something only undergone by species such as butterflies… As individuals, we too experience so much change in our lives, sometimes drastic, and this is also a form of metamorphosis.
