blades and rust

and bringing Hot Stuff on Shore Leave into the world together

Luxurious burgundy and foiled-silver all over

Hagiwara Rei explores the processing of grief

and pitches which carried voices we don't see enough of

On the Hieratic Art: or the Alchemy of Talismans by Brian Cotnoir New blades and rustThe Hieratic Art, or Priestly Art, is the art of composition for affecting change in the world. The composition is of symbols. These may be material things, images, words, letters, or elements. The Hieratic Art is also concerned with the ascent of the soul to the one, the divine, as is alchemy. Starting from first principles this zine explores this non discursive way of thinking, speaking, writing in affecting change. The aim of all art.
