Current Work / Featured Series:

Monica Janer is currently developing a pictorial and poetic series entitled “Las Mariposas del Cambio”, a proposal that combines visual art with symbolic oracle. This collection represents a spiritual journey through transformation, from egg to conscious flight, using the butterfly as a central symbol of the evolution of the soul. Each painting is accompanied by a channelled poem and functions as an oracle card. The artist channels the images and words from a meditative state, generating an introspective and healing experience. This new stage defines her as a painter-poet and channelling artist, reaffirming her belief in art as a path to self-knowledge, awakening and emotional healing.
