Inspired by the image of the full moon traveling slowly across the horizon and his bedtime ritual with his daughter, Yves Scherer explores the intimacy of a moment caught in time. Reflecting on the themes of childhood, new beginnings, and the vibrancy of blossoming life, Scherer elaborates on these beats through visual multiplicity, bold color, and vigorous brushstrokes.

The full moon can only be seen from the Earth roughly once per month, its shape appearing fully illuminated by the Sun. Unlike its other iterations, the shape of the full moon mirrors that of the Sun. This relationship is amplified by the color choice Scherer makes - looking at the paintings for the first time, we may need clarification on whether the scenes depict daytime or nighttime. The lunar phase of the full moon symbolizes completion, that is - the end, but also a new beginning.
