Size with mat: 24×30
Reduction linocut in 4 layers printed over beach trash collagraph on an etching press with Gamblin and Charbonel inks. Edition of 16 original hand- pulled prints. I saw a painting of a multi-armed mermaid in a dream. She combined aspects of Kali/Shiva with Mami Wata and other water goddesses from around the world. Water is a healing force in my dreams and in waking life for mind, body, emotions and spirit. The submerged city represents the clearing away of old forms that harm the earth by the astonishing power of water. She holds the conch, a call to action, and the trident, the power to effect change in her upper hands. Sea grasses and bivalves, the humble forces of restoration to health are held in the lower hands.
