V.5  ... and Decay  designed by mo


1. The “the fire” designs
Fiery and flaming, indicative of how explosive combustion can destroy and also create. We of course, “burn what doesn’t serve the people” with the flaming c*p car. The heating and cooling remedy of tiger balm, as it heats our soul and skin to continue in our means of burning the colony. And 抵抗 in seal script:  resistance, to defend something, refusing to accept.  15% will be donated to Hibr and FNF.

2. The “alien/decaying creature” designs
A deathly orchid, an alien moth, a butterfly, a rotting flower, all embodying motifs of decomposition and metamorphosis. Inspired by Edvard Munch, “From my rotting body flowers shall grow and I am in them and that is eternity,” and Mahmoud Darwish’s “I sleep so that I can fly”.  Designs admiring this intangible process of transition of weird, fleshy, gross goo into something structured, grounded, liberated and flourishing. And how it repeats, almost eternally. For all creatures, systems and structures. 

3. Naturey and abstract designs
Freeflowing fish under the stars, a Mary Oliver wild and precious flying fish, rocks and streams, spiny vertebrae, spiky rivers. General admiration for some of nature’s structures, little creatures and aggregates who witness generational time, unimaginable lengths of decay and change. Who move and flow in their  collaborative existences. 

4. The Arabic word for ‘Permanent’  دائم (dā'im)  and ‘Temporary’  مؤقت  (mu’aqqat)
