For us, the moth beautifully symbolises the spirit of Ancient + Brave: ever-evolving, constantly renewing, yet carrying the wisdom of the past within its wings. When we envisioned this project, there was no one else we wanted to collaborate with more than Susannah Taylor. Her creative vision and talent brought this to life in the most meaningful way, and we’re excited to share a video that captures her incredible work. The story behind the mural: “Kate came to me saying A+B was moving offices and there was the perfect space that was crying out for a mural - she envisaged a huge moth. We both agreed that moths are very underrated and mysterious creatures, but they are also rich in symbolism that seemed very fitting for A+B. Moths are associated with the dark and following the light, folklore, transformation and change, spiritual connection and guidance. We often think about moths as being dreary brown creatures that eat our clothes (!) but there are incredibly beautiful moths with wonderful markings. Kate wanted the mural to have a dark, jewel-like vibe and so I chose colours that reflect the brand and its packaging. I painted the background in a dark burgundy and then used a blend of mushroom, forest green, dark brown, burnt orange, teal and blue on top. Around it are elements I associate with Ancient + Brave - rare and natural ingredients, mushrooms, the sun, moon and stars, berries and leaves. I then added vibrant touches of gold that give it a celestial edge and really zap it into life.” - @susannahtaylor_ And the story doesn’t end there. Susannah’s stunning mural will soon be showcased in a new festive Ancient + Brave product collection. Watch this space! #wallmurals #beforeandafter
