This is Zuli. She is a Cecropia moth still emerging from her cocoon. I brushed some gold wax onto her cocoon. Her glass case is sealed with an antique ornate brass fruit exquisitely painted with flowers. My friend @saturniidae_queen who raises moths, gifted me two cocoons and Zuli came from one. Check out her page on ig! This little emerging moth has an interesting back story as to why I preserved her this way. So if you're interested you can ask me at the San Diego Comic Con next week, booth 1633. It's too hard to explain on here. These moths only live a few days after they emerge. #averoseart #cecropia #mothlovers #mothart #mothoddities #mothsculpture #preservedmoth ##mothcocoon #oddities #curiosities #prettydeadthings
