Next month I’ll be participating in @marketofthebeast The Reaping virtual market July 16-18! I’ll be running a coupon code sale in my shops for the market as well as doing another live stream. I’m working on a big shop update for sometime before the market since I want to make sure my newest creations (like these dangling leaf ear hangers I just finished up) will be part of the sale. Stay tuned for more details as we get closer to July!

Yet another mushroom collar design but I used some metal patina paints to make it colorful. What do you think? Should I make more with color or leave some plain copper?

I copper coated a real mushroom (a gilled polypore) to create this unique necklace! What do you think? Should I make more jewelry with real mushrooms? ✨

I made this cute little flower pendant during the Darksome market livestream last month. I’ve really been feeling black floral prints this season. Might make some more black flower pendants like this in different colors soon.

Fred Wilson (b. 1954, Bronx, New York) challenges assumptions of history, culture, race, and conventions of display with his work. Known for his politically charged work that explore issues faced by Africans and African-Americans in past centuries, Fred Wilson makes sculptures that are, first and foremost, beautiful. His Murano glass mirrors (2009), made from onyx Murano glass (a color never before used for decorative objects), are glossy and ornate, while Regina Atra (2006), Wilson’s version of the Diamond Diadem, the celebrated crown worn by Her Majesty the Queen of England, is as delicate and opulent as the original. Each is a commentary on the African experience, a theme that is occasionally met with great resistance, as in the case of Wilson’s thwarted efforts to erect a sculpture of a freed slave in Indianapolis, which was to be titled E Pluribus Unum. By reframing objects and cultural symbols, he alters traditional interpretations, encouraging viewers to reconsider social and historical narratives. Since his groundbreaking and historically significant exhibition Mining the Museum (1992) at the Maryland Historical Society, Wilson has been the subject of many solo exhibitions.

Renee Stout grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and received her BFA from Carnegie Mellon University in 1980. She looks to the belief system of African peoples and their descendants throughout the African Diaspora, as well as to the world and her immediate environment, for the inspiration to create works that encourage self-examination, self-empowerment and self-healing.
