This drawing explores the fragile relationship between moths and artificial light. Created with India ink and gel pens, the piece captures the tension between natural instinct and human interference. Moths, drawn to light by nature, become disoriented and endangered by the overwhelming presence of artificial illumination. The work reflects on light pollution as a quiet but powerful force, disrupting nocturnal life and altering delicate ecological balances.
