As part of an exclusive mini-series, Into The Light continues Caitlin Flood-Molyneux’s exploration of the black dog—a recurring metaphor for struggle, melancholy, and resilience. Drawing on personal experience, Flood-Molyneux transforms this symbol of darkness into a story of endurance and self-reflection.
Through bold, textured forms and layered color on high-quality 300gsm paper, the artist confronts shadow while seeking illumination, revealing moments of vulnerability, hope, and strength. In Into The Light, the black dog faces forward against a green and red background, accompanied by a glowing red candle, symbolizing guidance and resilience through darkness.
