Magic Powers (vertical spew)
2018
Felt, clay resin, wire rod, stuffing
17" x 45" x 15"
Based on my own non-idealized body and made of approximately 200 hand-sewn, multi-colored felt pods spewing out of the hands. This work combines signifiers from superheroes with the stigmata to investigate the shamanistic aura and creative power of the artist.
