Becoming Light by Tayo

Butterflies gather around an upward-facing figure as refracted light divides the face into shifting planes of blue and green. Transformation is pictured not as a clean escape from the past, but as a gradual change of state. The body remains underwater while signs of metamorphosis appear around it, suggesting that becoming begins internally before it can be seen at the surface.
