VÉVÉS XI

Here, immoderate glee at the emergence of excessively early Hallowe'en paraphernalia + arcane fixation on consuming the darkest, most subterranean and occult of plants as a staple diet. In the space of a day: empathizing with a growling rubber werewolf that shivers + spits jets of suspect-looking warm water (an intentional function? the display box worryingly failed to elaborate) + going into paroxysms of delight at the discovery of black string beans to accompany purplish-dark kale in a thoroughly eldritch meal, like mutual biting + digestion, of + by the earth itself.

Thrilled by all the inquiries and messages I have been receiving of late, I welcome and indeed encourage yet more, especially from those who might wish to share a glimpse of their own, sympathetically-inclined artworks - ever eager for such communicative stimuli!  + more, more to come ... xx

MBIZI ZA MAZA







"Construction in the Mind is fully soluble, lost in the wake of Tidal waves, in memory of the original return. Spirit is accessible, excited in this Shape-Shifting form, adapted to the array of marine internal logic."

Another painting that inspired art used in the Cut Hands Afro Noise I album! This startling figure, at once impassioned + transcendent, is here depicted in artist quality oils + select obscure additions on a 16''x16'' canvas, and is $950 (worldwide insured airmail shipping included). Please write to me at  mimsydeblois@gmail.com for more information, and remain piqued for further disclosures here ... xx

VÉVÉS X

Small signs of the approaching dying-off of fall - the cheerful and life-affirming decay of which season can only be likened appropriately in my mind to the intoxicating + horrific stench of low-tide - keep straying into my path, my personal favorite thus far being a great ovoid mass, reaching a height midway to my knee, of bright orange mushrooms on someone's carefully manicured lawn: an orgiastic eruption or expansion obviously made lividly manifest overnight and already in the throes of fragrant self-digestion after what I can only assume was a brief and furious mass coupling.  My delight at such uncouth proliferation knows no bounds...

On which note, I persist in my own creeping occupation of space and matter, a very central feature of which process is enjoying correspondence and inquiries both from those interested in the paintings and garments displayed here (thank you for all your lovely messages!) as well as from those engaged in sympathetic forms of creation - I would love to hear from you + see your work!  This witch seeks a more populous coven ... xx

MBOMA







"Touch is jealous Intoxication wine. Lascivious confusion about here as a Cross between the body and the Second Place, for the body betrays its patient flow, its properties and its presence."

The arresting form filling this 16''x16'' canvas also featured in the artwork for the Cut Hands album Afro Noise I.  Here it is composed in artist quality oils + more obscure secret vaudou additions, and is currently priced at $950 (worldwide insured airmail shipping included) - feel free to write to me at  mimsydeblois@gmail.com for more information! Still more to come... xx

VÉVÉS IX

Persistent rain produces a very grumpy sweat factory owner/operator/employee with a terrible humidity-plagued mane of unruly red hair.  Somehow, regardless of this debilitatingly unbecoming situation, work continues to get done, and even get done animatedly, spurred on by small everyday Magical happenings: recently, the rediscovery of a genuine hagstone found on the beach when I was two years-old, hidden away knowingly for my future use in waxy yellow tissue + a small spiky wicker basket by my grandfather. A prized addition to the arsenal of charms.

Such witchery being an motivator rather than an effective distraction, there is vastly more to appear here in the near future! xx

MENGA

























"Body in motion is an inflammatory invitation, probing the Boundary at the crossroads of the Living and the Invisibles. Agency in the Journeyer falters, then the Ruthless reality of the dance. Courage, and eventually they go and disappear."

This painting, one of my recent favorites, is artist quality oils and carefully selected + obscurely sourced secret ingredients on 16''x16'' canvas (and psst, design is included in new the Cut Hands Black Mamba album artworks), and is $925 (worldwide insured airmail shipping included) - write to me at mimsydeblois@gmail.com for more information! Working away at new curia to unveil soon ... xx

VÉVÉS VIII

Diversion! Have been hard at work assembling the next edition of Cut Hands garments here in the trusty one-girl sweatshop/atelier (+ for the time being we've some of our limited edition shirts from the first run still available), getting utterly abruptly lost in obscure ethnobotanical inquiry, being immersed in hysterically exciting new sounds, irrevocably spooking the next male generation after agreeing to accompany my uncannily identical twin sister on a job babysitting an erstwhile set of young brothers ... and welcoming a delightfully bitchy little calico addition to the cat coven.

Despite such apparent disarray, an underlying method persists, the fruits of which shall become quickly apparent! Many thanks once more to all those writing with inquiries and requests, correspondence is always most exciting. Much to come and soon ... xx
