the engineer also draws boundaries
the scholar draws maps
the diver-scholar … underwater maps. more currents & tides than the ocean floor?
the engineer favors the bone-dry, clean and dead…specimens, skulls, things pinned and mounted, weighed and quantified - victorian egypt. creates elaborate systems that may hang together, but might really just be based in conjecture.
the diver-nymph swims. though underwater, not everything stays in the same place.
thx beh
it’s actually a two-faced hybrid: nymph/nympho.
fruition part 5
part of a shot list, not edited for feasibility. just what gives me the freaky tingles.
the singer playing guitar to the nymph on an unmade hotel bed with honey all over his hands. the nymph on beeswax crutches or in a beeswax cast.
the scholar (butched out woman) in a vneck sweater and the nymph (man in drag) in a big dress running hand in hand out on a country road with peaches strewn all over the place
the diver standing under the williamsburg bridge flying several bluebird kites
the scholar with a wolf’s mask sitting in a room full of sirens and boxes of coral
the singer pulling honeycomb out of the scholar’s back, through a coral tattoo
the host drawing keys on the scholar with a peach in her mouth, wearing a locket

types of work…(none of them claim objectivity)
anxiety buffer: junctures, single events that have built self-image, seen through the lens of my head, of course.
atoll/reef: imprints of larger patterns… we can’t see the shape of what did the marking, just the marks.
hive/honeycomb: what’s above the surface, living and actively evolving, still in process
mourning ring: an aesthetic piece created from what’s damaged, decayed
fruition part 3
props…locations…talismans
williamsburg bridge: freedom, release
holland tunnel: constraint
gowanus canal: remover of evil
the honeycomb: raw vitality, living structure that nurtures
the atoll: a once living, now dead structure that shows the imprint of what was there, but now exists in and of itself.
the farmhouse: aesthetic structure based on decay
bluebirds: curiosity
bees: creativity
peaches: physicality
gears: functionality
honey: fulfillment, love
cameos: aesthetically pleasing depression or emotional sterility
scarf: security, tenderness
anchor: hope
sirens: overwhelming responsibility
locket: kept secrets, things unspoken or unknown
keys: owned aesthetics, taste used as a shield
maps: owned knowledge
javelin: sudden change
bed: karma
dirt: effort, work
coral: stale self-esteem, structure of culture
jet: stylized decay
vneck sweaters, bracelets: boys
dresses, rings: girls
