WILD ARCANA
Group photo of the Wild Arcana pieces

I am FINALLY writing about the pieces in my debut exhibition at Antler Gallery!
I wanted to wait before revealing all of the pieces so folks could see them live at the gallery.
I previously wrote about making a quick trip up to Portland, and the reason being was to drop off these pieces to the gallery. I was really concerned about The Magician not getting there in one piece via postal services, so I decided to just do it myself and make it an adventure.


THE EMPRESS - abundance, fertility, creation

It's a great book that explains cognitive dissonance, but what I found extra helpful was it also showed how to connect to people who are deep within cognitive dissonance. Book cover for "Mistakes were Made (but not by me) why we justify foolish beliefs, bad decisions, and hurtful acts" by Carol Tavris and Elliot Aronson. There is a banner that also mentions that this edition is updated with a new chapter: Dissonance, Democracy, and the Demagogue".

These pieces by far are some of the best—and coolest—sculptures I've made so far, and I'm SO PROUD of how they all turned out. Everyone except two pieces have found a home!
However, I'm currently dealing with that weird, in-between mental space after I do something big where I'm ready to continue moving forward and yet I feel like I will never make something as awesome and will fail.

It's a total lie, but brains are weird like that sometimes.
