Pyrotechnic Benthic

2024, jacquard woven fabric, thread, repurposed comforter batting, found fabric (free motion/machine quilted)

exploring how different methods of accumulation build images, in this case weaving. fabric designed via digital collage was woven on demand, then embroidered and quilted using the free motion darning foot on my sewing machine. inspired by symmetry, Rorschach tests, fireworks, explosions, and forams

the dude who just said “wowww” when i fell down the stairs with confucius took like 5 minutes to pick up his dog shit today by the pool because he was staring at a younger girl sunbathing and i got really fed up with it after a couple mins because i didnt want to pass him to buy a soda from the vending machine so i just told him to keep his eyes on the shit instead of that college girl. he picked his shit up and huffed and left. HE PISSES ME OFF SO MUCHHHHHHHHHHH my fucking. apartment nemesis. AND WHAT HAVE I DONE BESIDES FALL DOWN THE STAIRSSSSS

similarly to “man” and “woman” the words “indica” and “sativa” become useless and meaningless once you learn enough

working on early horses, i wanted to do a quick sketch to show how small Eohippus was compared to an extant horse (this one is about 150cm tall). as you can see, it wasn't big at all. a perfect little lap horse :)

I get to be more free as an adult than I ever did as a child and I think more kids need to know that. as a high schooler part of what made my depression so bad was being told over and over again that it was the most carefree time of my life. while I was trapped in an abusive home + amongst bullies at school + in a body that wasn’t right for me. opportunities to be carefree don’t end when you turn 18. you can be more you than ever as an adult and that’s such a gift. I know ‘it can get better’ is an annoying thing to see over and over when you’re as trapped as I was back then. and I know that if you’re still a kid you deserve to be free right this second. but it can and will get better and this is not where life stops being interesting. promise

Refreshing day at the pond, anyone? Wetland plants are some of my favorite parts of Summer. Golden club, cattail, pickerelweed.

Do you wanna play mermaids? Yay. Okay so my tail is light blue and I have ice powers. And I live in the Arctic sea and watch British sailors die horrible deaths while trying to find the Northwest Passage.
