42 x 32 x 3. intended to be hung horizontally or vertically. handcrafted poplar wood frame stained black. concrete + sand + oil + ground black onyx + plaster were layered 4+ times. sanded + re-envisioned. after the layers of texture were dry, it was painted with copper paint. after the copper paint was dry, we laid a green patina aging oxidizing rust over the copper. creating the beautiful rust you see underneath the brushed black pigment + watercolor.

Some statues we know to be beautiful green/bluish green with different tones and patterns. Those that have this look are the older ones that have been exposed to the variety of conditions that the weather brings. The harsh conditions of the storms and wind over time cause the oxidation of the copper which produces the most unique patina rust. We, like the copper, have had weathering, we've had life leave scars on us that change the look of our skin, we've had tough times that have changed who we are as individuals, for a while in a bad way, just like the oxidation of the copper when it was still in the process of making that change. there are times we still hurt and challenge the thought of being broken but this process as it takes its course becomes more and more full and transformed with the new beautiful patina color of the oxidized copper. When the final layer of patina has finished forming, the statue is stronger and more resilient to the weather. We too transform as we learn from the harsh conditions in life and turn that pain into strength and wisdom. Through that transformation, we've become stronger, different, and beautiful: in a way that reflects our growth, our weathering process, our tough lessons learned, and some of those that there is no way to learn but by enduring such treacherous pain. We have weathered the storm and come out on the other side changed. Our layer of patina is beautiful and sought after. We are like statues that have been through many storms. They have stories of time that you can see, and strength you can feel from the layer of patina it developed as it spent enduring through the years.

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
