Persephone is a favorite piece of mine from this era of my work.

She was featured earlier this year in my collaborative show, Holding Space— and is now part of a private collection.

Materials include found papers, wax, ash, acrylic paint, plastic sheeting, and vintage Czech glass beads.

"Pomegranate Seeds" by Lo Riddell: www.poetose.com/pub/pomegran...
When I enter the kitchen on Wednesdays, I find them there, at the counter, carefully picking out pomegranate seeds and dropping them into a bowl of water to be baptized or maybe sanitized – either way, there’s a cleansing. This is the way they always do it, so delicate, like playing with fruit some game of they love me, they love me not. I watch from the doorway with hands at my side as they keep theirs busy, plucking in ones and sometimes threes, like creating some harmony I feel I should know by now. The bowl of water is a pool – no – a scrying tool, which they use to practice their own form of divination where all of the answers come up blushing. They drain the water and displace the seeds from the bowl to a cup that they hold out to me like an offering dish. I crush the seeds between my lips and the answer spills out like juice: They love me, they love me, they love me.
