Artist's Comments
An assemblage based on the tradition of the May Queen. I was fascinated by the idea (truthful or fictional) that the May Queen was a human sacrifice to secure a good harvest. This piece is intended to be a funeral shrine for a dead May Queen, building on the tradition of Victorian mourning art and its use of symbolism and sentimentality. Each object has significance...but I'm writing a friggin' essay on this piece, so if you really want to know the whole story you can note me or something.
Victorian "May Queen" card, wooden box, stained paper, lace, antique ribbon, antique square nails, bird skull, mushroom, lavender, human hair. |

 reports, 1d 11h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |

she caught the flies, poor little things
and then tore off their tiny wings
she kill'd the birds and broke the chairs
and threw the kitten down the stairs

Oh remember in your narrowing dark hours
That more things move than blood in the heart
This just makes my insides smile, so touching

Be different. Like everyone else ;D
