Summary/Abstract: Through this visionary thread, the research will reveal certain species of arthropods that in the succession of time have been highlighted by enlivening a whole set of symbols that refer to the imaginary plane, beyond the represented figure. This area includes a process that sustains a certain degree of aesthetic or dogmatic subjectivism, because the history of symbols confirms that any sign can be enveloped by an aspect of palpable or impalpable symbolic value. The evolutionary study will be directed to the moment when insect themes in artistic creation will generate new meanings, and visual expression modes will embody increasingly fascinating configurations that will facilitate deep contact between the creator and the viewer.
