this #rage
long beneath the surface
of placid female countenance
now pushes insistently
against the benevolent scraps
bestowed on good girl status quo

NO longer
NO, your joke isn't funny
NO, I didn't #consent
NO, my body isn't yours
to touch, brand, or #legislate

#prochoice

“Was this the face that launch'd a thousand ships,
And burnt the topless towers of Ilium--…”
- Christopher Marlowe (from Dr. Faustus)
#HelenofTroy 's story has haunted me since I was 16 playing her in my high school's production of #Faust

"Seven tears for seven years I've cried to bring you to me". This is the #orkney #folklore for calling a #selkie man to you. An unaccompanied song from my new album #ghostlines

Time stood still in our breaking...
The opening line to a song that treads the tundra of relational ends. The imagery comes from a fairy tale I read once but can no longer find. It has haunted me these long years.

What are your #origins? How do we content with ours? How do we reconcile choice and responsibility? How do break the moulds created for us by our families, society, and religion? A #song of #legacy and #identity. https://t.co/sgH6tFeUFW

Are you in the mood for something a little bit different? Check out "Immortal" from my new album #ghostlines. It is my nod to the tragic #immortal characters that have haunted me.

The mystery and tragedy of the story of #Paris and #Helen has haunted me for years. On my new album, I give voice to both of them, viewing their narrative as a desperate bid to be seen in love. Paris is featured on #Ghostlines. #Illiad #homer #troy

I live in the #urbanwilds, where dandelions nestle themselves within the wrinkles on concrete's aged face, and the wind still sings in the giants that shade my neighbourhood. I know this place, and it knows me. We are our own #forest, a different kind of #ecosystem.

Feeling nostalgic this #Christmas and listening to music from my childhood. Christmas was #magical as a child. Every year we would trim the tree with wonder listening to #NanaMouskouri. What songs remind you of the holidays? https://t.co/3MbIp48NbY

The moments I get to integrate all the pieces of me that I love are precious indeed. A self-reflection #poetry, #journalling & #photography project seen through the lens of #GreekMythology. This was deliciously decadent. https://t.co/KxkMNeEnj6

Winter sunrise from my kitchen table. There is beauty in the most mundane moments and the most mundane places. A perfect restful morning. #sunrise #yycsunrise

As the work continues on my new album, Ghostlines, I have consolidated some of my living room demos that didn't make the album cut here: https://t.co/2UnUz2GH5F Subscribe to hear them all! #celticmusic #worldmusic #demos #livingroommusic

Working on a self-portrait project as part of my master's program; cracking open a reflective practice by examining many of the facets of my professional identity.

Change always comes with some degree of loss. COVID-19 has necessitated many changes individually and collectively. Grief isn't just for death, it can be for the loss of anything, including ideals, freedom, and a way of life. This podcast is beautiful: https://t.co/ONkAsQ3s4X

I listen to the developing tracks for my #newrelease with so much gratitude. The approach is organic and authentic. The #demos were stark (have a listen to one: https://t.co/rVsnxJXlLW) and as #VanessaCardui fills them out with textures they come alive.
