it is with armor that we go out into the world, placed upon us by our mother’s mothers, and theirs before. and though the world is changing, we still look to these distillations of collective knowledge to guide us through the dark.

even the devil once had wings is an 11-piece collection of fantasy and folklore-inspired objects. each piece is minted as a 3d file, meaning it can continue to find new life and expression as we move into an increasingly digitally-augmented world. 

it was a year ago that i first began sculpting 3d daggers. my aim was always for this to turn into a series: because you can look, but don't touch. we might be pretty, but we're filled with rage.

a delicate balance of beauty and anger, of smooth hilts and sharp edges, is a concept that intrigues me deeply. many of us move through the world like this: softening our corners while a fire smolders just underneath.

there's this dread so ancient in me — do you feel it, too? sometimes it feels like i'm carrying all that has come before, and all that will ever be.

each of the 11 pieces in the collection is titled with a proverb. these adages offer wisdom from the collective human experience. from our mother's mothers, and theirs before.

and despite these hints at darker undertones, which you are used to seeing in my work, i attempted to keep the collection playful and fun. many of the pieces are inspired by a combination of real-world objects and fantasy weapons, decorated with motifs of animals and hearts. you are free to choose whichever facet appeals most to you.

i'll be sending out the link to the gallery for previews soon. until then,
