Artist Bio + Practice
Tiera May is an occult artist from northern California currently living and working in the Pacific Northwest. She takes pleasure in destroying things just as much as she enjoys creating them. Hers is the sacred art of revolt.

Artist Statement
Art is a devotional practice; a ritualized deepening of inner and outer images. Symbols are physical realities as well as psychological ones. When used ritually, the intention imbued within these talismanic images spills over into the mundane world and acts as a bridge to the divine. What I’m trying to do is evoke a visceral response in myself through the work. A sensation that happens in the gut. In the blood. In the bones.
