The convergence of funerary art, nature, mythopoetica & folk memory

The DReaM of ChArneL NecTAr

Taking its name from hallucinatory poetry conjured by dark romantics of the early 20th century, Charnel Nectar is a visionary art studio that crosses the lurking thresholds of death to gather the finest flowers. Each precious bloom holds its own beauty, life force, and promise of return.

It is difficult to convey what this studio is all about without the embellishments of poetic speech since definitions feel restricting. My dream as an artist is expressed in a great many ways: stonework, philosophy, taphomancy, and various other media. The studio began simply as a place to carve stones and meditate but has since become a dedication to memory as a folk art experiment and an esoteric discipline. There are no restrictions on its possibilities today or tomorrow or what it may transmute into, for it is a labor of alchemy and love.

Regardless of what it is or is not, its purpose is clear: connection, restoration, and reflection. The rift between us and the worlds of yesterday is foggy; it is time to clear the air and remember that simply listening is enough, no matter how faint the echo.

Thank you for joining me on this journey.
