Devouring Mother

 Devouring Mother, 2024

ink, recycled paper, salvaged wooden frame, huisache thorns, roofing nails

43 x 36 inches





I used natural and salvaged materials to create this depiction of Earth as an anthropomorphic being. She is both the womb and the tomb. She is the Sacred Mother, birthing and devouring all. This work summons us, her children, to stand in aw of her, honor her, and tend to her.

This drawing is on view through January 17, 2025 at Culture Commons Gallery SATX as a part of the Resilient and Responsive: Artists and the Environment group exhibition.
