the new muses

Myth tells us of the nine Muses, daughters of Zeus and Mnemosyne, who served as the inspiration for the world’s creatives. While the gods are dead, in their swirling dust we continue to create. We are each other’s muses.

And so comes this project: two muses in a simple, two-step dance. One pulls from the void, creating something out of nothing. The other builds off that creation. Then, the muses swap and the initiator becomes the responder. Ad infinitum.

In other words, sometimes I will write and Asha will create in response. Like this post, for example. Other times Asha will create art and I will write in response.

Step by step, we mutual muses inspire one another.
