Mandrake

by Carisa Swenson

Said to spring from the ground below that of a hanged man, the Mandrake root is known for its distinctive human-like shape and ear-piercing scream when pulled from the ground (which is capable of killing the unfortunate soul gathering it). While folklore states a Mandrake should be bathed in milk or wine and wrapped in silk to keep it satisfied, ours are a bit more low-maintenance and just appreciate some stimulating conversation and cake every now and then. Fits right at home sitting on your book or plant shelf!

Note: Leaves are very delicate and require careful handling!

Medium: Epoxy clay, wire, Spanish moss, acrylic paint, paper

Height: 10″ from tip of leaf to roots
