Voodoo Goddess, Dried Blood, Limited Edition

LIMITED EDITION RELEASE! 

We proudly bring you another radical design by long time Tiki Farm friend and collaborator, Tank Standing Buffalo.  Introducing our brand new “Voodoo Goddess” mug, aka “Mama May”.  Tank can push the darker end of the design spectrum every now and then and we are very happy to support and promote his creative energies when he does.  You probably remember Tank’s super popular “VooDude” mug which sold out very quickly.  Do not miss your chance to get your hands on Tank’s newest creation shown here in a Limited Edition of 250 glaze variation we’ve named “Dried Blood”.  Peek around the design and you’ll see fun added elements such as skulls, flickering Tiki torches, a jug of hooch, a little stuffed animal, dripping candles, and… who do you spy on the back mantle… is it… yes it is… it’s VOODUDE!

Voodoo is not a lost art in the city of New Orleans. Voodoo, with its litany of spells, gris-gris, candles, and charms, is an exotic gumbo of traditional African spiritual beliefs mixed with Catholicism.   Brought to New Orleans by enslaved Africans from West Africa and the Dominican Republic in the 1700s, the practice of voodoo was at its zenith in the 1830s.  Voodoo is a religion long misunderstood, according to Priestess Miriam, who presides over the modern-day Voodoo Spiritual Temple on the edge of the French Quarter in the city’s Treme section. Voodoo incorporates both white and black magic, with intense spirituality at its center.
