Tiny love story...

| Medusa | Μέδουσα | “I thought Medusa had looked at you, and that you were turning to stone. Perhaps now you will ask how much you are worth?“ - Charlotte Brönte from a series of works that I titled “Gynecean Monstruosity: for the mōira made us téras”, it’s a bit wordy, but it’s the best title i could find for a series of works to celebrate the female monsters from greek mythology. my name is Sara, i’m a bisexual almost 22yo self taught illustrator and i hope you’ll like my work!

Image description beneath the cut

[image description] A shoulders up portrait of Daisy Ridley who wears a tan jacket with a plaid interior, a white shirt, and a pair of large pearl earrings. Her hair is shoulder length and curly and her pinkish red lips are slightly parted as she looks at the camera. The entire image has a peachy cast. [end description]

A trans nature moodboard! All of the photographs were taken and edited by me! (I think you have to click on it or else it might be a little blurry bc tumblr)

I wasn’t going to make anything today, but I saw that @makingqueerhistory had a queer works Friday and decided to do something!

Princess Seraphina was a real person, living in 18th century London. She was a molly, part of a fledgling, legally persecuted, underground subculture formed by people who today might identify as gay men, transwomen, or otherwise queer. Like most mollies, our only record of her is a court document. Still, she stands apart, having evaded prosecution herself despite apparently living openly as Princess Seraphina in her working class neighborhood.

The pages hidden within this book’s skirts hold what little we know about her, and what some of her neighbors thought of her. I constructed her using chicken wire, then covered her in paper mache. After that, I designed, printed, and bound the book block, all in the same red as the paste downs. The text included is disjointed excerpts from her court case, as well as some brief historical context, broken up by blank pages. I then carefully measured and cut the front cover from the rest of her, and then it was a matter of case binding, paper mache, and more paper mache.

Want to read the original court document? It’s online here at historian Rictor Norton’s website. If you explore more of the documents he has available, I recommend packing a box of tissues.

Want to see me make more work like this? So do I!  tip jar & etsy

I made some graphics for @the-war-is-over-ld  and here they are! I love these characters so much, and I will protect them with my life. The fact that Amir ended up so different from the others, as well as how some of them echo each other, makes me really emotional

[Image description: A two panel digital illustration. In the first panel, three people are shown from behind in a subway car, two adults and a child. In the second panel, the subway doors have opened to reveal a person with the read of a ram, wearing a leather jacket. Their hands are in their pockets. The adults on the subway stare with disgust, while the child looks astonished.]
