Egyptian
The gods, Horus & Khepri
I've been influenced by the Egyptian culture and have developed ideas on it, linking to a quote from a poem that i read, the art of losing isn't hard to master; so many things seem filled with intent to be lost that their loss is no disaster. It gives the idea of something mysterious and impossible to understand which to me is a myth.

I chose to focus on horus, the god of the king, the sky and vengeance as I find that it illustrates the poem. Serving many functions in the Egyptian pantheon, most notably being the god of vengeance, it further emphasis on the point " with intent to be lost that their loss is no disaster".

Called the scarab in ancient Egypt, it has been on many documentaries and even in the mummies movie. The scarab beetle lays its eggs in the bodies of decaying animals and in dung from which they emerge from when they hatch. This is why the ancient Egyptians believed that it is made for dead matter. It is linked to khepri, the god of rebirth and the sunrise which links to the poem, in the sense of being a celebration of death and lost.
