  "The Mystic Grotto" by JAMIO



Odell,Jami-
"Cannibal Queen" by JAMIO / Mixed Media / 13 / $29.99 USD

Description: Arising with jubilation, the enchanting sorceress Haumea, the goddess of childbirth, is reborn. With her powerful staff and magical plants, she was master over the seas, the fish and fertility- the very essence of life on the islands. Resurrected as "Atanua", South Pacific villagers chant her name in anticipation of morning rays, but not too loud, for the bloodlusting goddess of dawn feeds the fire with her desire for manflesh. The bones of her offspring fuel a pit of allegory. It is common for makuas to tuck their little keikis in at night by reminding them to be good and go to sleep or else....face the dawn with the Cannibal Queen!!!

Jami Odell

Biography
Hailing from the island of Sakatamata, kustom kulture artist JAMIO tantalizes tiki enthusiasts with lush and exotic landscape scenes, sharing the taboo tales that are not often depicted in tiki culture. This body of work is influenced by the dark and profoundly mysterious Polynesian and South Seas subculture, consisting of cannibalism, sacrifice, unruly god and goddess rituals, and magic. The intent and result of this work is to be deeply moving, if not disturbing, and share the experience of farscape lands that may only truly exist in the minds and imaginations of those who believe.
 
Statement
Who is JAMIO? Jami Paul Odell (aka JAMIO) is a talented "Do It Yourself" artist, with a formal background in Fine Art. Lending from the techniques of the masters, JAMIO creates astounding pieces of imagery depicting today's subculture in a way that are both unique and cryptic. He taps the vein of the evening nightly news, visions from disturbing nightmares, ghost stories, cult horror classics, Polynesian folklore, Greek Mythology and the festering underbelly of our culture for inspiration. An honest, sensitive, by-the-book chap, Jamio unleashes his darker side through his work, all while balancing an otherwise normal existence. To know him is to love him, but to understand him, is one of life's great mysteries. @;-)
