Thedocia Autumn Mae is the owner and operator of local artisan company Sovereign Frequencies, an interdisciplinary and multidimensional artisan company focusing on glass, metal, fine, photographic, craft, and urban art.  Most of her images seek to create a dialogue regarding our evolution and place in society through iconography and psychogeographic ethnographies. Her  art is intended to be more than just a three letter word. The images are created as a psychogeographic representation of her surroundings, as seen through a Nikon D3300 and recreated in pastel and paint;  a visual ethnography in fine art form. Her images seek to initiate a dialog with the viewer through the use of traditional and nontraditional techniques. The most recent  series focus on industrialization versus the concept of civilization and evolution: our post-modern rubicon. Since the age of industrialization our environment has begun to shape and be shaped by the marketplace and the consumer. Our landscapes  echoed the efficiency and evolution of the assembly line of capitalism as the 19th and 20th centuries turned. When we think of sunsets, our minds edit out the buildings and the telephone lines, but they were there. As we choose to industrialize and technologically advance, our society continues to devolve with every machine made widget created. We don't think about the electric lines,  phone lines, the stop lights and stop signs. But they have become the norm. I refuse to edit them out, and have found a certain aestheticism amongst the power lines that evoke an internal struggle between the evolving self and the defined corporeal citizen of the nation state. Some of her images are more direct visual ethnographies emphasizing a direct approach to communicating the insertion of the industry and the consumer market upon the landscape. Others have become a surrealistic interpretation on a cloudscape while discussing the iconography of the Texan Skyline.  Although she has years of traditional training, she has begun to branch out to alternate mediums in order to attain a particular size or impression. The juxtaposition of academic tradition and new age urban techniques invokes a secondary dialogue as well as a new form of G.E. Moore's aestheticism conjoined with the principles of William Morris and the mass production of Warhol. The goal is to plant a seed by communicating one of the more frightening realizations as an anthropologist and an artist with this series: we are devolving, and our brains are telling us but we are not listening. In short, Thedocia believes that  the betterment of society rests in the minds of its citizens and the understanding of the psychogeographic effects of society on the individual.
