I just needed to sit down and make something... I needed a flippin' moment to myself after a tough week.
At times like this I love to just mess about with paper... make something inconsequential! So I dug into my scrap-paper and photo box and had a play whilst sitting in my lovely spot next to my plants. A perfectly crafty juxtaposition: Inspired by the really great men and the really 'not-great' men!14/9/2017 FOR THE REALLY NOT-GREAT MEN! FOR THE TWO BEST DUDES I KNOW! LOVE SUBVERSIVE CRAFT! HOW PRETTY... THEN... POW!
Using scrapbooking supplies, I crafted up some lovely yoni art for a room in my new home that I am going to dedicate to art that honours WOMYN. One yoni is called the THE ADMIRING YONI, she enjoys complimenting womyn; 'HELLO BEAUTIFUL' she calls out! Then there is THE YONI CARMEN who is sporting a headdress reminiscent of Carmen Miranda's fruit head dress. She too is full of positivity, calling out 'SMILE' and reminding me to STAY AWESOME!
It felt RIGHT that January 26th is the day to put together my first poster; a day that means something to everyone on this great Southern land.
As Australia continues to spiral into a healthy identity crisis and slowly but surely reconciles with the well-documented injustices against the first peoples of these lands, me and my crafty buddies enthusiastically throw up a synchronised air-punch and loudly exclaim: IT'S TIME! #ChangeTheDate #KeepMovingForwardAustralia |
