Enamel Pin: Suminagashi Lungs—A Quarrel of Swallows

Sold Out $15.00

1.5 x 1 inch hard enamel pin of the suminagashi lungs in Nen and Liz's WIP painting "A QUARREL OF SWALLOWS" featuring Eoran from COLLAPSE.

COLLAPSE is a collaborative novel written by Nen and Liz. Suminagashi is the result of laying paper atop ink swirling on water's surface. Below is an excerpt of the passage that inspired the original painting:

he breathed

piper calm, but well inside, his blood grew a quarrel of swallows, starving in his creosote chimney veins, black eyes pleading with mortality and winglets beating in begging torment, flutterfeathers broken and bent, bloodfeathers ripped in all their rustling; betrayed by their confines of slick agony, slippery poison, sanguine suffocation.

A BEAUTIFUL PIN

The pin I ordered (as a gift) is beautiful; the metal is super shiny and the enamel is smooth in finish. The pin came pinned on a gorgeous (and super large!) backing card. Very nice presentation. I asked the artist/s if I could get an artist card/business card and they sent two (which are super nice, seriously like art print quality).

Lovely

The vector is top notch, a nice marriage of Nen's graphic design anatomical lungs and Liz's suminagashi in a stunning swirl of gold in a void of black. Two backings for support - have yet to put it with any clothes but it's in the works.
