25.01.2022 Commissioned orgy wall tile. Inspired by Dionysia - or Bachannal: parties that took place in Ancient Greek times in reverence and celebration of the God Dionysus - God of music, dance, intoxication, orgy and ecstasy. ~ Dionysius had a great number of worshippers specially women and they were called the Meenads (Bacchantes in ancient Rome). Maenads would go into nature, drink wine into a state of intoxication and dance till a state of trance and ecstasy was reached. The purp...ose was union with nature and ecstatic union with the god Dionysus. ~ "So long as we are unconscious of the divinity inherent in matter, sexuality can be manipulated to fulfill ego desire; the sacred prostitute is not present, nor is the Goddess being invoked. Instead of manifesting as a transformative power that can mediate between wounded instinct and the radiance of the divine, the Goddess is called upon to justify lust and sexual license. Light does not come through incessant wallowing in the dark. All our rage, all our bitterness, all our fears, are stepping stones. Only from a clear vision of oneness, an experience of genuine love, can we live our own truth. Whether this experience is given through another human being or through a solitary connection with the divine, this is the experience that illuminates our lives." Marion Woodman intro to The Sacred Prostitute by Nancy Qualls-Corbett ~ Currently taking orders for relief style wall tiles, for enquiries send a DM or email and we can talk further

21.01.2022 Oh to live with the cycles of a natural world as my own. To create in a way that surrenders into the higher wisdom of the seasons. To gather parts of the earth and share with it the ways it has taught me to see. To dance with the elements - a slow, humble dance that must sway in time with the rhythm, or else stumble on its own feet. Receive the vision. Sculpt. Wait. Refine. Wait. Fire. Wait. Paint. Wait. Fire again. Receive the vision, now in physical form. Now let it go out into the world.
10.01.2022 In the studio - exploring visions of a world between worlds.
