Monarch butterflies seasonally migrate from being triggered by sunlight. This wire interpretation of this migration is a metaphor of human relocation when we are in a state of diaspora from external forces. As they fly outwards in a spiral carrying little pockets of lights, the evolution in colour represents how we mature from our experiences and memories.
