If you like ^3wyl....


^3wyl is someone you may know as quite a community player. From running #ProjectComment to frequently featuring largely unknown artist and groups, hers is an online face that you see a lot of. She was awarded the Deviousness Award in November 2010 for her “all round super deviant attitude”.


InsideI watched my best friend die.

It wasn't in a hospital and it wasn't an accident on some road somewhere. There's a saying, and I guess it's also… funny… how you never know what's going on behind closed doors.

I guess you're probably thinking of suicide; overdose, hanging by the rope, or (god forbid) the knife, but… it's not that.

Because it's one thing to die and it's another to die. I believe you can exist without properly living.

What is a life? We are born into this world with no say on the matter, and yet the majority of us take for granted that tomorrow we will wake up to another morning, another routine, another day in
Two Perspectivesi am perceived differently by
            everyone

 what i thought was “right”
             wasn’t

they condemn me, making me
               see
           their way

   I already see their way.

     they don’t see mine
 they don’t understand me
they don’t think i am human

               (No)

      I am not Human.


Her art [and literature!] is moving, compelling and thought provoking, often straying on the side of abstract.





Unlike many deviants, ^3wyl chooses her pieces with care and precision so that every piece is unique and noteworthy; from photography and graphic art to interesting formatted poetry.

against the wall of autumnyesterday i saw
you from across
the cafeteria.
you were sitting,
back towards me
laughing with
your friends.
admittedly i was
jealous;
but not of you,
of them.
we used to know
each other,
remember ?

your shoulders were
hunched, like you
were bracing
yourself from a
harsh wind.
i knew your mind
wasn't in the
conversation.
i hunch my
shoulders too, when
i'm distracted.

we're the same,
you know.
we write
all the time and
no one
understands why.
they don't know
that our hearts
beat like crumpled
paper or that it
pumppumppumps
out words like
a war wound.
so many people
surround us;
we feel--
we fe
ocean viewwe tucked away
with salty dry hips
and whisper-talked.
we laughed and
dusted sand
from our grips.

i fell in love;
deep-
deeply in love
with the sea.
the spaceswhile he moves his mechanical
fingers in my rib cage
i wonder if he feels how
brittle and cracked
from overuse they are?
from everyone
reaching for my heart
from between my ribs.

...and it’s worth checking out some groups that ^3wyl is a member of...

This is [hopefully] going to be an ongoing series of news articles showcasing various deviants. Any suggestions on how to improve the format, and also suggestions for artists to feature, are always welcome. Just send me a note.


DISCLAIMER: I’m pretty sure someone will take offence to the fact that I’m featuring one main deviant and then similar artists, so I will say now that I’m not trying to offend anyone or make one artist out to be better than another. The featured artist just happens to be one that I know and watch, and the others are [mostly] new to me. I’m just trying to expand my own, and anyone else who cares, horizons.
