V E N E R A T I O N // this vessel . this place . this time the language of web weaving . of patience and affirmation from the otherworld Overcome with a sense of gratitude as life expresses through symphonic emergence - coherence and rhythm - blossoming after an eon in the underworld where one learns the etiquette of reverence - a sense of being adorned and guided by elders past . who have taken their place in starlight . rivers blood . winds tongue 1. Self portrait with a vessel full of the most beautiful flowers from @gjustaflowershop taken during my residency this week 2. A sketchbook entry from 3.31.2020 taking notes on visions of ceramic wood-fired mushroom growing vessels - to be suspended from the ceiling of an earthen lined grow-room embedded with full spectrum light (aka visions for future human re-patterning and trauma integration centers) 3. Another self portrait with this vessel in which I had only prior encountered one of its kind in my drawings from almost exactly 2 years ago - it is moments of this specificity that I feel most in communication with the unseen - acknowledged - humbled 4. A sentiment from a more recent sketchbook that has been tumbling around in my heart this week 5. Some very fine and pleasurable work made on my sweet friend @kaelenohm 6. Divine incarnate aka the most luminous ranunculus thank you deeply @gjustaflowershop @shelleyarmistead @sydgilbitz + all of the other lovely humans on the team - for the most stunning week I could imagine - your integrity, hospitality, and care are unparalleled - thank you for setting the bar and being the luminaries that you are
