Mundus Transfiguratus
Towards a Queer Ecological Mythology
Mundus Transfiguratus depicts an alternative living mythological world where queer transmogrified beings take centre stage and challenge the established perception of human supremacy. This experimental counter narrative interweaves fiction and reality, legends and biographies, to explore conflict, displacement and trauma, but also to celebrate hope and love, and overcoming adversity.

Brightwyna's Landscape Divinations
These conceptual paintings were born out of the symbiotic relationship between Brightwyna and their natural environment. In a performative dendromancy ritual, Brightwyna enters a trance state, drawing forth visions from the land itself. Using bark, leaves, petals, lichen, and sap, they scatter organic matter onto raw canvas. The materials fall, forming patterns that answer the questions Brightwyna dares to ask.
