The Canopy of Jewels

The Canopy of Jewels belongs to the Canopy Codex. The Canopy is its own sacred world — a living, breathing forest spun into existence by the forgotten architect of beauty: the Grand Lady of Design, also known as the Goddess of the Light Trees. Her name is Senaya — the sister whose hand was passed over when the call for creation first rang out. It was her brother, Lord Senem, who was asked instead, and in his heavy-footed haste, he made a ruin of what could have been. But Senaya, with her quiet hands and ancient knowing, wove the Canopy in secret — a realm of light-bearing trees, of singing beetles, of ants who speak in pollen, of ladybugs who carry the memory of the first sun, and of the sacred Protea Glory bees, who trace their maps across the petals of eternity.

The Bridgeworks

In the space between the history and relics of African mythology and folklore as charted by the Afrodeities project, and the Afro-romantic fantasy stories lie 'The Bridgeworks'.

The Bridgeworks are something else entirely:
They are tied to Fable, Griot, Score, Spell, Memorabilia Sigil, and now Script and Numbers — the rivers of knowledge, the rivers of coded survival, the vast crossways of memory, language, and mathematics.

The Bridgeworks are about the crossing points between systems of remembrance.
The Canopy is about the sovereign act of creation in the natural world — the artistry of life forms, design, and living beauty.

Bridgeworks

An Ennealogy of works covering the origins of lore as we know them, with exciting additional tales, the journey of the story bearer and record keepers of ancient Africa who were sacred and fundamental to court and communal life, to the music of the content and how it spread and influenced the world to the practice of roots and herbs and magic in Africa and the diaspora. The six books of the series of 9 shown here are Fable, Griot, Score, Spell, Script and Memorabilia which discussed the legacy of African ingenuity and innovation. Sigil, Numbers and Soil make up the rest other series.

The Canopy of Jewels

The Canopy of Jewels is the realm of luminous forests, of design as sacred law, of ecosystems spun from artistry and spirit. It is not a land of conquest or dominion, but of harmony — every leaf a language, every petal a possibility.
It stands apart — a full codex of its own.
