Welcome Baby Crone Series
A lot of my work when I was younger was about sexuality. As I’ve gotten older I’ve started to hesitate about continuing to explore that. My hesitation is largely due to a need for dignity, but definitely also a feeling from society at large that I should “put it away” and just be matronly and invisible and soft and perfumed.
A new feeling is growing. it’s this feeling of there being a caged in raging hag that has some stuff to say and oh god! She’s scary and ugly and fun and funny and assertive and on fire and might burn it all down. Rude and blunt and hungry. Covered in middle fingers. Loves the absurdity and awkwardness of still being a sexual creature in this strange new-to-me old body. A body that maybe is finally mine, released from the expectations and needs of others.
