Catherine Just
Butterfly with Mended Wing #2

2023

About the Item

Butterfly with Mended Wing is a study of the human condition and the work we all do in our own lives to belong more fully to ourselves. The red stitch on the wing is symbolic of our decision to heal and grow and to not give up on ourselves even in the face of deeply painful experiences. We stitch ourselves up and keep going. Integrating the gifts of each chapter in our lives as we learn how to fly. The golden moon or sun, depending on your interpretation of it, is our truth, our intuition, our inner knowing, our connection with a higher purpose, our individual inner compass and the light that connects all of us. Each butterfly is a one of a kind with gold paint and red stitch added by the artist. Catherine Just is a visual artist, author, intuitive healer & mindset coach living in Los Angeles, CA. Her photography and mixed media artwork explore the metaphysical and emotional realms linked inside the human experience. She received her BFA in Conceptual Photography, Film and Video from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design, apprenticed with Miguel Ruiz (author of The Four Agreements and Shaman Master Guide) and has certifications in subconscious reprogramming techniques which all weave into her artwork and her continued exploration into the human psyche and spirituality.
