Project Update: Misery Monday VII | The Fulfilled Flesh
Hello Missourians,
Yes, I am proud of myself. Thank you.
The full House of Flesh is on the campaign page now!
Warning, there is a giant penis in the 5, so if you want to avoid that on your phone in public or something, you've been warned! So let me buffer a little bit with a reminder that you have until Feb 2nd to get a refund on this project, no questions asked. After that, there will be no refunds offered. Okay, buffer over. Let's take our final look at the House of Flesh!
- 5 The Excess
In our suit of Flesh, we have The Throbbing. In excess, Flesh explores the extreme of bargaining. Where we give everything for what we want, need, hunger for, but leave ourselves emaciated, bloodless, dying. This is literally represented in a penis too large to ever be fully erect, the body clinging to it, wanting it, but dying because of it. They have such hope and joy in this bargain, but cannot understand they die from it. Be wary of what you give up in exchange for what you want. - 6 The Ecstasy
In our suit of Flesh, we have The Bruised. Pure ecstasy in pain. At a certain point, rage, anger, abuse become normal to us. By us, at us, to us. It becomes a point where we feel high as if surviving the pain is healing it. But it's not. We can't thrive in our anger at the world or other people. We can't just lash out to feel something! To heal, we must stop the pain. Stop dealing it, stop accepting it, stop creating it. - 7 The Finale
In our suit of Flesh, we have The Turned Away. To become a denizen of this house is to ignore offers of help. To see the way out and finally choose to stay. To hurt. To be hurt. To always be trading to live. We can become addicted to this space and relationship. To escape it though, we must be able to turn to face what we have made, what we have experienced, or how we are being hurt, and finally say no more. There are no easy ways out through other people's help. We must face what is happening and take a stand to leave ourselves, on our own terms. - Denizen
In our suit of Flesh, we have The Cannibal. This is a beast more than a person. Ashamed to be caught, but that won't stop it from eating the body in its lap. This creature will eat its own fingers as it eats its subject and never notice. Lost in pure consumption, the feeling of intensity and rawness. It has traded itself wholly for the role of being the one who eats, rather than being eaten. But that has left it alone. Trading its humanity to never be the one who is hurt. - Ruler
In our suit of Flesh, we have The Body King. Be wary of collecting your defenses around you like a mass. In your bargaining and fury, you have begun to use other people to fulfill what you felt you were missing. This is a person who will use you for their own ends, not noticing when you begin to go rotting, and when they do? They won't help you. They are beautiful now from all your help, they will undo the stitching and leave you rotting in the corner. You are ascension to them, not a person to be helped, seen, supported. There can only be one King.
Well, well, well. With the House of Flesh complete, we now head into the final 3 suits. Nails, Rust, Blood. Nails is about to be a grey, concrete world. Are we ready for desolate beauty? I sure hope so! Nails is our upward turn, promises of more available before us. It is the moment for us to gather our tools in hand and begin planning for possibility.
If you're feeling like there's enough desolation in the world, can't ignore that I just launched a new project-- so I better shout it out.
Otherwise, see you all next week for some concrete brutalist Nail hell! :P
Have a great week yall,
7DA
