My name is Gina (for now) and I’d like to think that I am an artist. I have about two square metres of skin and almost 400 eyelashes. I was organically grown in a womb before I moved out into the open air to join a pack of two staffies and some humans.
I am a pumpkin doula and I help various gourds navigate the difficult transition between life and death. Through this service, I have learnt how to embalm imagery in beeswax and resin as well as write about unrelated stuff.
In an attempt to emulate god, I make things in my image. Things that are ugly and pink and oily. Things that are transmutable, transsexual and wholly unfinished –
