Snake-skin Diptych by Dorell Ben

Snakes are a reminder of constant transformation and growth. The skin-shed of a carpet python – affectionately known as Fluffy - painted and sealed with acrylic black ink calls to the ideas of spirit, patience, and interconnected relationships. Nature gifts mankind with opportunities and challenges us to always be patient. To receive the skin-shed of a snake, one must wait for the snake to decide on their own transformation and growth. In this diptych, ask yourself of your own transformation, and what it is that you intend to shed in the darkness to step into the light …
