• ARTHROPODA by RAEANA sits at the intersection of fashion, film and fine art, reflecting the depths of emotion and the tension between strength, vulnerability and renewal. The work examines what it means to move through pain, beauty, grief and resilience, tracing the moments that undo us and the forms that emerge after. ARTHROPODA is an expanding conceptual ecosystem shaped by a deep reverence for arthropods — their resilience, structure and capacity for adaptation. Their anatomy, exoskeletons and colorations offer a lens for exploring metamorphosis, collapse and emergence, the death of one self and the rise of another. Color functions as both signal and story within this universe. Green, red and yellow appear as recurring markers of strength, danger and illumination, while a signature chartreuse symbolizes vitality, rupture and the electric charge of change. The scallop motif used throughout ARTHROPODA echoes the segmented bodies of caterpillars, nodding to early stages of transformation — growth, fragility and preparation for what comes next.
