Statue of Agrippina the Younger in the guise of a priestess carved from basanite.

Essentially, It was about writing from the exiles, the transbords [transfers by the slave trades], the deportations and the lived experiences themselves thrown away in the plantations. Haunted by the memory, inhabited within the ancestors, it was the work of the deprived and the damned. The description of our lived experiences as slaves and indentures does not have any idyll. The dull violence of history makes the basanites of our present and the irruptions of our brief hardinesses. At the junction of faith and the cutlass, we, descendants of slaves and colonized, work in order to make a village out of the cemetery, a marronage. Ambivalence between anger and peace, saying “we” is taking the risk of a “no”, treated with fragmentations and reunions. Like the Hindus do, the malbars, We have ashes as offerings.

Doryphoros Torso, 1st half of the 1st century A.D.

Basanite from the Wadi Hammamat, (h) 113 cm

Formerly in the collection of Cardinal d'Este. In the Villa Medici in Rome from the end of the 16th century. Entered the Uffizi Gallery in 1783

Despite being an extraordinarily hard stone that was extremely difficult to carve, basanite from Egypt's eastern desert enjoyed a certain popularity as a material for statues in the early imperial period because its bronzed hue lent itself admirably to reproducing the celebrated bronze masterpieces of the Classical era. It gave statues of rare perfection and outstanding quality, chiefly intended for the highest-ranking patrons of the time in consideration of their exorbitant cost, The Florence torso, in particular, is unanimously considered to be one of the most accurate and reliable reproductions of Polykleitos's Doryphoros (second half of the 5th century B.C.), capturing with rare sensitivity both the restrained power of the figure's muscular mass and the meticulous rendering of his anatomy

Jasper Correspondences & Associations

Yes, it really did take me this long to work on the correspondences of the rock that stalked me until I named myself for it.

According to Wikipedia, jasper is "an aggregate of microgranular quartz and/or chalcedony and other mineral phases, is an opaque, impure variety of silica, usually red, yellow, brown or green in color; and rarely blue." The reason it's usually red is because of the inclusion of iron.

My latest project: deer jawbone dreamcatcher.

I'm very happy with this piece. It definitely took a lot of patience to put together, but the persistence was worth it. Now it will hang over our bed.

There are 13 stones in total: green gems are green quartz and the black gem is black jasper/basanite. I used artificial feathers, but in the event that I come across some natural ones, I may switch then out.

All in all, I'm pleased with the overall look of this one, and would absolutely do it again, should more jawbones find their way to me.

I gave the rocks names!, we have:

Marble, the leader of the group, she is bossy from time to time, and gets frustrated easily, her best friend is:

Rhyolite, she is very curious and rarely knows what she's doing because she focuses to much on the little details, unlike:

Coal, she is very calm and goes with the flow, but because of that people think she's naïve, but she actually understands everything,

but one thing they all have in common is that they all get pranks played on them by:

Basanite, she's the prankster of the group, and she considers herself the funny one, but not a lot of people would agree

I love drawing these rocks!

Au fond, il s’agissait d’écrire à partir des exils, des transbords, des déportations et des vécus eux-mêmes jetés dans les plantations. Hanté·es par la mémoire, habité·es parmi les ancêtres, ce fut l’entreprise des dépossédé·es et des damné·es. La description de nos vécus d’esclaves et d’engagé·es n’a point d’idylle. La sourde violence de l’histoire constitue les basanites de notre présent et les irruptions de nos hardiesses sommaires. Å la jonction entre la foi et le coutelas, nous, descendant·es d’esclaves et de colonisé·es, tâchons de faire du cimetière un village, un marronnage. Ambivalence entre la colère et la paix, dire « nous » c’est prendre le risque d’un « non », traité par le morcellement et les retrouvailles. Comme le font les hindous, les malbars, Nous avons des cendres pour offrandes.

This was my live before my first kid was born. It was only for me, my bus and my volcanos. Perfect. We are standing in front of a fresh vertical cut through a tepthrite - basanite phreatic scoria cone crater wall in the quaternary german east Eifel volcanic field. In the upper part on the black contact, the strombolien eruptions begun. Long times ago…
