A long time ago, when I was a boy, I discovered the most terrifying creature in the depths of Astotin Lake at Elk Island National Park. So naturally, I make it gargantuan. Fear the Hydrozoa! #hodgepocalypse

Meeting a water bear. 🌱

Basically wishing I could make myself tiny and get lost in some moss. So much beauty in little drops of water.

it is insane to me how every experienced fish person can be like "you need pest snails to properly maintain a planted tank" and you still get aesthetic weirdos who vomit cry and scream at the sight of 1 little hitchhiker

my finished quilt for my undergraduate thesis show! my art practice lately has been spending time with small things the average person doesn’t notice or know about. this quilt is entirely hand printed and hand stitched. show label below:

Little Glass Houses, 2023

Hand-dyed and unbleached muslin, cotton batting, mercerized cotton thread and block printing ink

Diatoms are a prolific single-celled microorganism, found in water and soil across the planet. This quilt "magnifies" them for the human eye in a composition that mirrors the view of a slide under the microscope. The cell walls of diatoms are likened to glass, as they are made up of a thin layer of transparent silica. Replaced by soft cotton and thread, this quilt gives them a dimensional quality that is lost under a microscope.

The bears pictured here are made by Letters to Ear! ^^

“Roi des Lions!”

“Roi du Poison!”

Here is Rook photobombing Leona a lion and Vil a peacock! You can tell it’s a male one because the males are colorful; females are brown, plainer, and lack those vibrant tail feathers.

And here’s the City of Flowers/Fleur City goats come to chomp on Rollo’s robes again 😂 How… fitting…

I think the goats mistook Rollo for food…? Since they were following the pellets someone else was trying to feed them.

Bonus: Heartslabyul’s flamingos resting between croquet matches/j 🦩🦩🦩

Oh yes, i'm normal, i'm just daydreaming about inhaling fungal spores and having it change me to the point where we become one and develop a symbiotic yet codependent relationship with each other.
