Haven't seen the "Entity" since I made these two pieces based on it. Planned to face it and get a good look at it, for the third piece, but no luck. In my nightmares, it hides in the shadows, behind my field of vision. It "SEES".

Bride to Scold

Another take on this one.

The blue "tears" are hidden away. A reminder of the pain women were expected to keep while staying silent on it.

The red under her skirt symbolizes the blood of birth and of her violations.

At the time of it's use, women had little to no bodily autonomy.

[CODEX- the lost Icons]
Bride of Scold

4 x 6 inches (approx.)

Gold and silver Pilot pen, and Posca pen brown kraft paper.

The red "A" and sewing needle are a nod to the scarlet letter. Women accused of adultery (which at the time included rape) had it sown onto their garments or were branded.
