About the Design:
The design of the moths was based on Islamic art, inspired by areas of Amy’s flight path
Bridget Murray interpreted the group’s designs, incorporating an element from each one, ie. colour, shape or repetition of pattern, and referring back to tile designs from Istanbul to give it an authentic Eastern flavour, while maintaining the groups original take on their inspiration from the theme.
