“Lotería Rusa” [analog]

inscription reads «Вода камень точит» literally “water sharpens stone” in English. it’s a Russian proverb about persistence.

loteria is a Mexican game, kind of like bingo, where cards have a lot of personality. as such sometimes weird (cool) people use the cards for divination.

i wanted to marry the two concepts. i feel a Russian language lotería would be well suited to divination, due to its information efficiency (e.g. lack of articles, permutative flexibility) if you drew this hand, it’d be pretty easy to interpret.

it was challenging making this without access to printed Cyrillic. i suppose I could type it and print it but I don’t own a printer.

I have other collages here. Song pairing: Anno Domini by Venya D’rkin

My page. Song pairing: I-5 by Mope Grooves

disoriented, nervous, the lung by glass fiber.

when I was twelve the rains brought me to tears, swallowed up hope.

i determined to die and glow brighter-I wouldn’t have to live anymore.

but we started to dig our way out with our hands. I had the art world.

“I love the objects that I paint,”

”these are our drugs,”

so hold on to life

you must be lingering over wine and with friends.

he will give her earrings and she will have her ears pierced.
