This ritual triggered the idea of merging the delicate cloth fabric with its natural enemy.
As a result, the artist also discovered a new love and appreciation for the winged insect.
The way moths tirelessly and fearlessly reach for the light inspires me, Bernhardt tells to My Modern Met.
I dont hunt' my materials, I let them happen' to me, she continues.
I can walk by a beautiful tapestry and feel unmoved, or I can fall in love with it.

I can get inspired by different things.
A purse, porcelain cameo, string of pearls.
Carriage blanket, antique tablecloth, embroidered bell pull.
They tell stories, and its never-ending.
