This captivating artwork features a central figure, likely an aviator, adorned with vintage aviator goggles, surrounded by a striking arrangement of large, dark blue butterfly wings. The wings fan out from the central figure, creating a sense of movement and life. The background is a mix of deep blues and blacks, evoking a night sky teeming with stars. A golden circular frame encircles the figure and wings, adding an element of elegance and focus. This mix of realism in the portrayal of the aviator and abstract patterns of the wings creates a compelling visual contrast, inviting viewers to explore the depths of the painting further. This painting would be an extraordinary addition to a modern or eclectic interior space. It would work particularly well in a living room, study, or gallery wall, where visitors can admire its unique qualities up close. Its bold colors and dynamic composition make it a centerpiece that can spark conversation and curiosity, especially in a home or office that celebrates adventure, aviation, or nature-inspired art.
“After midnight, the moon set, and I was alone with the stars. I have often said that the lure of flying is the lure of beauty, and I need no other flight to convince me that the reason flyers fly, whether they know it or not, is the aesthetic appeal of flying.” Amelia Earhart |
Beauty, strength, wonder -- a glimpse into the expanse of the universe on a starry night, the moon shining in breathtaking glory, a butterfly alighting on a breeze, turbines propelling us through the skies, a woman going where no woman has ever gone before. Amelia Earhart was a woman of nearly unrivalled grace but also a fighter, full of dreams and tenacity. She spent her adult life setting and breaking aviation records for altitude, speed, cross-Atlantic solo flight, first solo flight from Hawaii to the continental US,worked tirelessly to promote women in aviation and technical fields and encouraged women not to hide behind gender norms. For her, being a woman was no reason to limit one’s ambitions; it simply meant having to fight harder to reach for the stars and discover the world around. Amelia Earhart lived — and died — for her dreams. Her legacy of courage, willpower and dedication to the realization of her dreams have continued to inspire people and foremost women ever since. |
“Please know that I am aware of the hazards. I want to do it because I want to do it. Women must try to do things as men have tried. When they fail, their failure must be a challenge to others.” |
From the "FEMMOBILITY - What do dreams know of boundaries. Dynamic woman: groundbreaking past, present and future" series in cooperation with the Wiener Linien.
