Jorogumo's Lullaby
Acrylic and epoxy on gallery-wrapped canvas, encrusted with Austrian crystals
24 × 36 × 2 inches (61 × 91 × 5 cm)
Suspended in a moonlit forest, the Jorogumo (the seductive spider-woman of Japanese folklore) hangs inverted in a shimmering web of silk and starlight. Her long dark hair cascades downward like liquid night, while her many-jeweled hands rest delicately near her face in a moment of eerie grace. Glowing crystalline threads stretch across the ancient trees, catching the light of a luminous full moon.
Rich layers of acrylic and glossy epoxy create depth and movement, while thousands of hand-placed Austrian crystals transform the web and moon into living constellations that sparkle in daylight and glow ethereally in darkness. The entire piece radiates an otherworldly luminescence, blurring the line between beauty and danger.
Part of the Whispers of the Yokai collection, Jorogumo's Lullaby captures the dual nature of this legendary being — enchanting and lethal, graceful and monstrous. A haunting meditation on seduction, patience, and the delicate threads that bind us.
