Nicolas Christol
"When I came home; on the abyss of the five senses. where a flat-sided steep frowns over the present world. I saw a mighty Devil folded in black clouds, hovering on the sides of the rock, with corroding fires he wrote the following sentence now perceived by the minds of men, & read by them on earth".
/William Blake, The Marriage of Heaven and Hell

Nicolas Christol. Bracelet: William Blake, 2023. Oxidized silver. Photo by: Espace Borax. The ancient Poets animated all sensible objects with Gods or Geniuses, calling them by their names and adorning them with the properties of woods, rivers, mountains, lakes, cities, nations, and whatever their enlarged & numerous senses could perceive. And particularly they studied the genius of each city & country, placing it under its mental deity. Till a system was formed, which some took advantage of & enslaved the vulgar by attempting to realize or abstract the mental deities from their objects; thus began Priesthood. Choosing forms of worship from poetic tales. And at length, they pronounced that the gods had ordered such things. . Nicolas Christol
