"Chinnamasta"

Daniel Deadwyler's piece "Chinnamasta" is in her words "about Chinnamasta who was a Hindu goddess who removes her own head for the blood consumption her attendants; a goddess of contradiction: sexual self control and energy; life giving and like taking. So, too, is my grandma, a life long resident of Athens, GA. A life giver and a life taker. She labored in a chicken factory for 36 years." The Exhibition "Will to Adorn" by Danielle Deadwyler is the culmination of her participation in the Leap Year program at Mint.
