Ascent Into Chaos

A sculpture... balsa wood sticks and wax. I made this at a KCAI Continuing Education weekend workshop for art educators.

 Productive weekend of learning at KCAI.

“No wonder male religious leaders so often say that humans were born in sin—because we were born to female creatures. Only by obeying the rules of the patriarchy can we be reborn through men. No wonder priests and ministers in skirts sprinkle imitation birth fluid over our heads, give us new names, and promise rebirth into everlasting life.” - Gloria Steinem

Mushrooms, a few different ways.

 

I’ve been experimenting with various mediums (Copic markers, water-soluble graphite sticks, micron pens, and watercolor) on translucent vellum paper. It’s pretty different from what I’m used to working on and I haven’t cracked the code yet. It doesn’t seem to like water.
