PUTTIN' THE CRY IN CRYPTID

Multiple angles of a ceramic sculpture of a fox like canine reclining on all fours on the ground with its head tilted upward, its eyes large, soulful, and inquisitive. Its pelt is full of reds, browns, greys, and black. Flora creeps all over its neck and onto its shoulders.  On its back is an intersection of a rainbow flag, trans, and nonbinary flag, all three joined together by a full moon.  Under the moon reads "SURVIVAL"  Below is a panel of white canine forms tenderly embracing; snout touching snout and resting on eachother.   Under them a flower almost resembles a heart, and by the sprawl of its roots are two canid skulls facing eachother.ALT

“Survival”

Cone 5.5 stoneware, underglaze, glaze, nichrome wire

A piece about caring and bonding deeply intertwined with survival, and death as a legacy to the building of love and community.

Some may recognize this piece being on display during the spring of 2025, it was purchased for a surprise and was finally unveiled last month so I’m now sharing it online! :)

it’s healthy for academics to have professional feuds. enrichment activity

reply from no-context-discord-quotes reading: im an anthropology major and there is/was a big feud about if neandertals had language given their hyoid bone (speech bone) looks just like the ones in humans but is in a different spot more closely resembling a baby or ape. this one guy argued that they wouldnt be able to make most vowel sounds and thus couldnt speak. another guy sent him a letter calling him a dumbass while only using one vowel, and still being understandable. i love academiaALT

From embroidery, to print, to embroidery again.

Because if someone decides to be an asshole and tell me my work isn’t embroidery, I’m going to take inspiration from it. 🙂‍↕️
