it wasnt her curse to break;

she was everything and nothing at all. all at once she witnessed the fall. she had to find a way to balance knowing she was a token of 77 years of a bloodline of men that led to her. they thought she would be the first, but she ended up being that and the last.

she was the last to continue life holding onto silence to keep moving. the ones who were supposed to protect her spent their days without acknowledging the curse that was flooded within her veins.

her addiction; as if she knew her blood was poison and the needle pursing into her skin was going to counteract the already tainted blood rushing to her head.

the curse that used her for pleasure.

the pain inflicted on her bloodline was not the fault of their own— the walls of the gas chambers that heard her ancestor’s last spoken words, it should have been the last time they allowed pain to pass on from generation to generation. Yet they passed down those last words their family took as if we forced them to be spoken.

They spoke the words proudly, every Passover: dayenu. dayenu. it would have been enough. dayenu. it would have sufficed.

Through gemstone-infused concrete and plaster paintings, we narrate resilience—both stone and artist slowly metamorphosing after enduring prolonged periods of darkness, pressure, and tension.

Our art is an alternative to self-destruction; it is our chosen medium for self-preservation. Through gemstone-infused concrete and plaster paintings, we narrate resilience—both stone and artist slowly metamorphosing after enduring prolonged periods of darkness, pressure, and tension. Threads of tender wool pierce our linen canvases, weaving the tragical landmarks of our past and the grit of our present. Through abstraction and inscribed biographies, we commemorate our recovery journey.

We handcraft our work with the intention of constructing empathetic dialogues between art, audience, and the hearth of home—a sanctuary for self-exploration and rejuvenating solitude. We forage then process earthen materials, creating calming hues of pigment in a variety of natural tones and attributes. Weaving all of the various versions of ourselves together, to then be encased in wooden homes of their own. By marrying mediums not commonly fused together we echo the cadence of diversity catalyzing balance. Our partnership in life and artistry epitomizes the power of cultivating authentic connections, nurturing empathy, dismantling prejudices, and restoring trust within relationships.

"Inspired by the human condition and how the psychology of design and art can influence our mood, the team is passionate about aligning with like-minded designers to create art that adds depth to a concept. visceral home was given its name after being told multiple times how their art provoked emotion that the viewer physically felt but couldn’t find the words for. They are motivated by innovative, expressive spaces that marry artistry and functionality. The couple aims to create pieces that are investments, not decor. Original works that outlast fleeting trends, especially in this new social media age. Art to pass down and be shared. A visual story that feels just as much your own as it was theirs. Their influences in terms of design styles come from various periods, designers, and architects. 1950s-1970s architecture and interiors; Mid-Century, Bauhaus, Scandinavian, Mediterranean, Asian, Japandi, Industrial, and a splash of boho designs. Keeping in mind the spaces their art lands will continue to morph into new personalities, they focus on creating art that can be everlasting through many design changes." - DM 2023
