Information

"made of" is partly a yonic metaphor, so about sex, the body in general, trauma, birth, creation, gender, spirituality, etc, but there's also some shapes influenced by a flower, an oak leaf, and a feather. There's also nail polish in shaping suggestive of blood (so pain, life, etc.) or rivers (the body as landscape, water as lifeblood), sugar crystals, and the background is somewhat bruise colors, somewhat smoke colors and whatnot, which can have lots of different meanings (including being colors associated with ink and pencils), but there's also a little blue and some gold, which can suggest peace, hope, the sun, money, the ocean, sadness, lots of stuff. On the main image there's holographic pinks and purples and golds from highlighter makeup, nude from lipstick, pink from lipgloss and sort of a wine color with a bit of gold (more nail polish, a nod to the Thelemic Whore Mother Goddess Babalon but also many other things), pink blush. Considering the cultural and artistic connotations with makeup (so many and most very fitting), plus the shades themselves, the artist feels like it says a lot not only about themself but about the body and cultural and artistic views of it on a larger scale.
