Deus ex Machina

Paper painted + Torn + Reformed
Deus ex machina “god out of the machine” is a plot device whereby a seemingly unsolvable problem in a story is suddenly resolved by an unexpected or unlikely occurrence. Generally its function is to resolve the otherwise irresolvable by surprising the audience with a happy ending / comedic device.
The machine is coined from ancient Greek theater where actors playing gods were brought onto stage using a machine. The machine = a crane used to lower actors from above or a riser that brought them up through a trapdoor.
Personal + created within indigo void wherein one’s own truth sat with oneness + a chin up long enough to witness a heavenly drop:
MH dancer outstretched, Nancy with the spirit of Nicki, and a specialist with angel in her first name + royal was her last.
Artist Noting:
At first glance the dancer’s hand is just that + stay there and it becomes a child’s. This was necessary. The shoes had to be green because they were, same deal with braids + holiest blues. The resulting tone feels neither bad nor good, it just is = bullseye.
Meta punctuation:
The use of balcony shadow reflecting things that start as seed + a kingdom protected…restored to happily ever after for now.
