At the center of this piece is a poppy spirit, a fairy-like being embodying the essence of the flower embodying its fleeting beauty. The figure is filled with peace and serenity as it is swaying softly in a late summer breeze.
The poppy has long been a symbol of sleep, dreams, remembrance, and the delicate relationship between life and death. Its petals are brief and fragile, blooming vividly before quickly fading, which has made it a powerful symbol of impermanence and the fleeting nature of beauty. At the same time, poppies are deeply connected to rest and altered states, linked in mythology and folklore to the world of dreams, intuition, and the unconscious.
In folk traditions and witchcraft, poppies are often used in rituals connected to sleep, visions, divination, and inner journeys. They carry an energy of surrender and trust: the trust required to release, to rest, and to move patiently through cycles of change.
The atmosphere of the piece is calm and dreamlike, holding the golden haze of late summer and the first pull toward autumn’s inwardness. It invites the viewer into that suspended moment where the world feels softer and slower.
