another hard one – eostre has felt like a struggle for me. even though we took last year off, i don’t feel a lot of joy in what i’m doing; mostly i want to support my gf.
ppl gave me a few directions and i tried to go with those and it turned out those weren’t very clear concepts (even for those that suggested it).
i reviewed past moodboards about birth and was inspired by a few midwife lithographs, which often had fanciful representations of the inside of the uterus, or sometimes just a dismbodied pelvis, and hands reaching into pull a fetus out, or sometimes a baby pushing its hand out through the vaginal aperture.
this hand is performing a genderless fisting exercise (it’s a pelvis that i explicitly warp-meshed to be mtf, if you must know), and finding a companion inside to caress the stigmata of.
