here are the wings


the wings are best in the darkness

the wire



its fallen over, i think its re-designing itself, its gone all sort of misconfigured if you look at a photo of it. since then its got some paper mache, but that cant be all. its a bit messy to really consider at the moment.

this is the amibguity phase. which generally turns out to be most of the entire being made phase: ambiguity - and sometimes it lasts a fair bit into the finished being made phase, but then enventually it ends.and its not so ambiguous, for a while.until it leaves that is.

but at least its not trying to be medusa, at least... but its trying to be something else, evedintly, except its not saying, even in the night time.
its saying it doesnt have enough space to be. the rest is all ok, it wants to have a lot of stuff 'growing' out of it,which is cool, so like not quite like pater familias, a bit less obvious. maybe more cotton and string and other joined stuff, but all mixed up. it still keeps worrying about the space. maybe if pater familias and other stuff could get buried or emigrate or run way, then there would be more space. in the meantime its waiting until the morning to help with deciding what to be. which is ok.

A Nors and a Valkyrie




The Valkyries, minor female deities, carry the most heroic to the Valhalla. The Nors (almost the same at the Valkyries) weave the tapestry of fate. The Gods can't see the threads.
