Antler, grown each year and shed in the spring by the Cervidae family, is the fastest regenerating substance in the animal kingdom. Here antler sheds form the base for the circular iron meridians, creating a portal to the consciousness of human societies that existed before bronze age weapons technology, before the carving out of heavy metal ores from the Earth; the consciousness encoded in our DNA & cellular memory. Used to make everything from spear points, agricultural implements to ceremonial headdresses, antler was the height of Neolithic-era tool technology.
Here confronts the direct correlation between civilization’s technological progression, (specifically the prioritization of weapons technology), and regression of morality. Here is a portal to our feral origin & a visualization of 21st century human technology wielded with respect for reciprocity & the wax & wane of regenerative forces of life, death, rebirth. How raping the Earth of her iron ores resulted in imperial hierarchies of rule by the greediest, most well-armed.
