Reposting these commissions sheets that I forgot to posting here for too long!! This is also included the more sexy erotic side/NSFW commission which were also paid at the same price as well, since this is the domain of Ares and Aphrodite after all !

Enter Billig's "banal nationalism": The gingham dresses and apple pies aren't innocent aesthetic choices. They're loaded symbols reinforcing a specific narrative about "traditional" American values. The white picket fence is a political statement.

The authenticity paradox: Real 1950s housewives were champions of convenience foods and modern appliances. Today's tradwives preach "from scratch" while using KitchenAids and Instant Pots. It's not historical accuracy - it's modern wellness culture in vintage dress.

🧵 As a sociologist, i need to tell you…
I find it fascinating how the "tradwife" aesthetic perfectly demonstrates what Svetlana Boym called "restorative nostalgia" - longing for a past that never existed.

Historically, Marcus Antonius, during his trip to Egypt to visit Cleopatra VII, has always considered himself to be an embodiment of Zeus-Serapis-Dionysus, consort of Isis Aphrodite, but I just think the icon of armed muscular Ares/Mars always suited him more, and look the best.

Ares’ version of Marcus Antonius was based on the historical statue of the Roman politician himself, with his embellishing muscle cuirass based on the Roman Republican statues of Julius Caesar, Augustus (Octavian) of Prima Porta, and Mars Ultor in the Forum of Nevra.

Isis, during this time, was a very weird figure to say the least, since while still keeping her Egyptian identity and attributes, she was further fused, syncretized, and absorbed the qualities of foreign Greek goddesses like Aphrodite, Demeter, Persephone, Tyche, etc.

Aphrodite’s version of the Egyptian queen was based on the depiction of historically-accurate Cleopatra VII made by Joan Oliveras (@/jfoliveras on Twitter & IG) as well as statuettes of Isis-Aphrodite that were carved from the Ptolemaic era-Roman Egypt, taken with modern creative liberties.

Was inspired by the idea of “mortals who often dressed as divinities back in ancient times to achieve power, wealth & influence, while in this modern-day, divinities often participated in down-to-earth activities, have fun disguising & dressing up as historical mortals for holiday celebrations!!!

“Each language carries entire worlds of human experience and insight developed over centuries: the rituals and customs that shape communities, distinctive ways of seeing beauty and creating art, deep familiarity with specific landscapes and natural systems, spiritual and philosophical worldviews…”
“Maybe the intelligence we most need is the capacity to see beyond the hierarchies that determine which knowledge counts. Without that foundation, regardless of the hundreds of billions we pour into developing superintelligence, we’ll keep erasing knowledge systems that took generations to develop.”

A rather grisly #MosaicMonday
Villa de Noheda, Villar de Domingo García #Spain
During the #Roman occupation of Spain, there lived a man who was so wealthy that he could have his wine shipped all the way from Syria. One of the largest mosaics ever found.
