Yeah, you don’t see one of these every day!
My other big winter UV resin art accessory project besides the Imbolc Crown.
Probably a hundred hours of my life went into this piece over the last two months.
slowly adding thousands of beads, crystals, cast resin jewels, microbeads, micropearls and droplets of tinted resin.
edit: here’s GodXXX Noirphiles about to perform in Lausanne this May, in the horn visor and trans flag latex durag by Lupae Latex of Berlin!
Meditative, self-soothing, meticulous and yet random work.
Making these pieces is as different from my primary art mission as it could possibly be.
But the flow state is the same.
Controlling the droplets of resin as the UV light of the sun hardens them is hypnotic.
This piece is robustly constructed, because I made it with a performer in mind.
And I was so honored when GodX Noirphiles said they would accept it as a Patron gift and wear it for her performance in Switzerland in May! He said it would go perfectly with their costume :)))

I have been incredibly inspired by the faces and stories and performances GodX (pronouns he/she/they) has/have been posting since they started a Patreon. I get so much energy from this young artist’s creative work, and while the money I can give is limited, I can also give my creative labor.

I simply cannot wait to see how this visor looks with Godx’s Switzerland costume and performance look.

Now, more visor pictures!
In the sun, this acid mermaid visor comes to life, a dendritic viral psychedelic whirlpool of opalescent glory!
And since pictures really don’t do it, here’s video!
