TYKAI Take My Seed [Mystical Strength]

song: In The Year 2525-Zagar & Evans

Atonement. We all have our flaws.
Uh-oh I'm reconciling again.
Heart pouring to God
Listening to nature
First leaf falls- creek downstream
Laid out oiling my machine
Delicate cacti, turquoise dragonfly, driftwood fungi
Tobacco, shells, & knowledge with a strange guy.
To be or not to be
Crows, snakes, & butterflies
Sent a signal to me.

Embrace Yourself. Share Love.
Fashionable Kisses, LORD TYKAI

TYKAI Thanking God Today for Tomorrow [Thank You]



Thanking God Today for Tomorrow

Evolution, tickle me
TKI revolution, serpents see
Monkey to man- quite possibly.
Born.
A canvas of flesh
3D printed in the likeness of God.
From the ink of a feather
fashion rhymes, treats, & beats
Different doesn’t make them wrong 
Just an alternative to lumière.
Helium transfixed in a circle
Water flowing over rocks
Let me blow your mind with some of my frocks.
Lion. Butterfly. Peacock.

Embrace Yourself. Share Love.
Fashionable Kisses, LORD TYKAI
“I Love You. I Appreciate You. My Beautiful & Stylish Loved Ones.”

TYKAI Butterfrog Stream

Song: Heaven- JayZ

Something like a dream
I began to glean
A tanning oasis
Then a panoramic bull scene
From you, to me, to you with a twist
It’s glistening in the middle
Oh shit, I think I broke my wrist
Money in the bank
Sugar in my tank
River bend, my, how your interest never ends.
Designing new wares
Will you get in?
Drip- drop
Ribbit and flutter
For now, no more shall I utter.

Embrace Yourself. Share Love.
Fashionable Kisses, LORD TYKAI

TYKAI Wisteria Annunaki [I'll Fly Away]




“Come una farfalla un bel di giorno.”
The grandeur of nature
Never alone
 Fun, creative, adventurous, & stimulating
Making out the puzzle
A constant flow like the stream
Floating on earth matter with chirps abound
A being
Mid day
Wood- toned, surrounded by green
Created by God
He was hugged by the wind &
Kissed by the Sun <3

Embrace Yourself. Share Love.
Fashionable Kisses, LRD | TKI

TYKAI DANDELION SEA vol.1

Song: Pieces of Me- Ashlee Simpson

“Rubbish to Worth”
…There is such a relief experienced when you align your canvas with the pulse of the universe. The light of the sun, the exfoliation of earth, the gentle breeze, the rustle of trees, soaring birds, and fluttering insects all encompass you.
Embrace Yourself,
Share Love,
Fashionable Kisses, Lord Tykai


TYKAI Cathartic Rocky Road

Song: Silence(Michael Woods rmx) feat. Sarah McLachlan- Delerium

“It's a rocky road to the glorious sun.” Boxes are revered, yet they are mitered with grief. The magnificence of humankind was evolved around jubilous circles. “|||v|||v|.||||v||||o.” The naturally occurring intrigue of invisible curiosity= Shading, Communication, & Reflection. A coniferous horizon, an aqua sky, and dangling ornaments Sappy, chopped tree trunks- RISEN! Circles, sand, wood, fire, water, the sun... A human canvas.
E.Y.S.L.F.K, Lord Tykai

TYKAI Midnight Peacock...Personified Rainbow



[video: The Voice of Tykai-Lord Tykai]

We sit at a retreat in zip codes upper crust. Below a steep hill on granulated Earth beside the water's edge. The symphony of night is accompanied by a sloughing of tears from  rock formations in the dusk. Atop these great sands are 8 stories of LOVE- each with a fire lit candle. *Love Stories represent healthy, discriminated, or compulsive relationships* 1.Same Gender Loving Men 2. Same Gender Loving Women 3.Cougar & Twink 4.Man & Dog 5.Young Interracial Man & Woman 6. Older/Mature Man & Woman 7.Skinny Woman & lots of food 8.Plus size Woman & Aspirational Skinny Clothes.
Though personalities differ and life experiences are expansive; A common synergetic thread stitches all...Redemption & Transformation by Lord TYKAI. On the perimeter of the sands are 5 TYKAIANS circling the 8 love stories. 10 minutes before the clock strikes 12 the bell is rung. Then, again for 5 minutes after midnight, they dance a dance of jubilee- Removing anxiety, reducing darkness, and radiating smiles to hearts. [BE THE COLOR]
11:59-The landscape is silenced, lit only by moon. Sirens [TYKAIANS] and lovers pause as the boisterous sound of wind chimes are heard from on high. Glowing sprites appear on the water, through the sand, amongst the trees, then from the heavens like a billowing wind from another planet. In unison they chant "The VOICEofTYKAI" "The VOICEofTYKAI""The VOICEofTYKAI". At nanospeed descends an ethereal Lord TYKAI, riding on the back of Leo (a white lion with peacock plumes and crystals as his mane). Beams of light emanate from Leo's crystals to each lover set on the sand. When Earth is reached, he levitates above the love stories while Lord TYKAI dethrones.
12:00-Lord TYKAI dressed in a white loincloth and cape. Wearing a paisley turban, peacock ears, and radiating a celestial glow from mystic enlightenment and beautiful stones. He walks down a sprite staircase then stands feet perched in the sand between two peacocks. Smiling ;-) A golden mandala illuminated around his feet. He taps into their mind's eye by use of his peacock ears. He transmits their style solutions, custom designs, and assigns them a creature for inspiration. "Whenever you are in doubt, you are to continue or retrace your steps when you see this creature." He instructed his pupils to repeat after him *hugging himself* "EMBRACE YOURSELF"-they followed. *he blows a kiss*"SHARE LOVE"-they followed. Smiling...waving ;-) He walked back up to Leo's back and said cheerily "FASHIONABLE KISSES-Lord TYKAI".

LORD TYKAI Martian Nuptials Fashion Exhibit at the North Carolina Museum of Art [Parallel to Rodin]

PARALLEL TO RODIN
song:When You've Been Blessed-Patti LaBelle

You have no idea how major this is! I showed a TYKAI dress, with fabric designed by me, featuring TYKAIroGLYPHS at the North Carolina Museum of Art-along with a "Clementine" and bouquet. LATE. FAB.GLISTENING.GREGARIOUS.THATdamnMURPHYandHISlaw. I literally have a cut out of the NCMofA in my TYKAI sketchbook (in the front with other clippings:Gloria Guinness, Gianni Agnelli, & Monaco in GQ...etc). Excerpted from Todays's Triangle Woman Magazine[Sept/Oct 2010], it only has artist renderings of the $72mil. expansion featuring an exclusive collection of penis-showcasing Rodin sculptures. This was once a wish that became a reality Thank You! SuperSocial-Chic-Entertaining-Vivid-GreatAura-FunHat-SuperSequins-LoveBuddy.

THE EVENT.
Hosted by the Fashion Summit of NC-coordinated by Cierra Harris and April Bush, the event was upbeat, free flowing, and emotionally art-tastic. Networking with other creatives is always fun-sharing tips, ideals, and experiences Guests were wonderfully sophisticated and diverse. They Spanned multiple demographics:young/ old; frugal/squanderous; black, white, brown, red, yellow...hair Imagine walking through the doors, being greeted by the most hospitable guardsmen- straight ahead there are paintings, above you-lit "thinking men" perpendicular to the wall, to the left- many alabaster penises, to the right-a thriving fashion crowd, to your side-Iris, the museums posh restaurant which serves contemporary American cuisine.

THE THEME.
MARTIAN NUPTIALS
She was tickled green, gushing to her friends that she performed her nuptials on Mars. "A destination wedding in Bora Bora, seemed redundant."
It is no secret living on Mars [in an environmentally controlled shangri-la atmosphere, or not] will be experienced in our lifetime. With new civilizations- rituals and folklore are transported, then customized:
*for unique cultural identification
*to govern the progression of a new society
*to honor ancestors and knowledge past
*for a synergetic relationship between nature and humans
Quixotic. Sophisticated. Fun. The TYKAI bride chose vivid color on sustainable fabric and ancient TYKAIroGLYPHS to celebrate the spirit of the momentous occasion. On a 15 foot diameter mystic topaz sand circle, illuminated by the Sun, the TYKAIAN commenced her vows. Her peacock plumed headpiece and bouquet were special gifts from LORD TYKAI.

THE DRESS.
FABRIC DESIGN
TYKAIroGLYPHS printed by Spoonflower. Each TYKAIroGLYPH is an abstract representation of me, in the design process journey-when creativity was high.
FIBER CONTENT
Cotton poplin, toile (hand dip-dyed by me), and tulle. Since I put so much of myself into the fabric design, I really wanted the dress to be "high touch". The fabric was dyed beneath the cosmos late at night. The dress is NC designed, printed, produced, and introduced. It is also virtually sustainable minus the pigments.

THE INSPIRATION/PROCESS.
God sent me butterflies to "bless" my path in creativity. One black, blue, and orange one anointed the bouquet while I made it. Never have I had a butterfly literally twirl for photos. Two touched her tits The veiling represented a free-spirited explosion of her chakras. #CALIBRATED The true beauty of it is...the process OF design became the inspiration FOR my design. NATURE.NURTURE.CREATION.
Abstract elements include the sand crab found on Cherry Grove Beach {TKI Scarabaeus Acubens},the TYKAI mandala in the center of the heart, blue waves=water, green=land/fertility, red=fire/passion/love, orange=warm/playful, yellow=energy. The depth of black and the hint of white is present because we all have some light and dark to our character.
Who said Adam was lonely? He seemed happy frolicking in the garden nude without Eve. Okay, procreation needed to exist and it was deemed he needed a companion;Thus came Eve. The shame of their frolic didn't come until Eve partook of the fruit. Let's just say, I would enjoy being Adam prior to Eve Waterfalls & Animals.

OTHER THOUGHTS WORTH MENTION.
*Showing parallel to Rodin [memories of grande white sculptures in the gardens of the Musee Rodin in Paris]
*The metaphoric simile of it being a brisk, autumn evening; A supercell hurricane brewing in the South-like when Jimi Hendrix played Woodstock [during my birth month, "Hey Joe", 1969]; Right when I exited the building via great industrial doors and long "runway" corridor, it began to rain. A Car Named Desire BATHING.REDEMPTION.REBIRTH.
*The 2story dancing willow that blew, bloomed, and wilted rythmatically behind the band all night.
*I'm always modest. May I be vain for once? They understood it...were delighted by it...and appreciated it The managers, the bartenders, the fashion prowlers, the financiers, the couples, the bachelors, and guards. Tapas diners came to me saying, " I just watched you from across the room and you radiated so many positive vibrations. I had to come meet you." I shared hugs, wine chat, and laughs with circles of women. I shared shakes, compliments, and pats with distinguished men. Dwellers anxiously awaited to take photos with me. With crystal zebra, Buddy, on my shoulder, wearing a vintage silk sequin jacket with glass bead fringe (purchased at Design Archives in downtown Greensboro-it's last hurrah was during NC A&T State University homecoming), my deceased maternal grandmother Anne's (who I never met) upper tier divine order legacy brooch on my heart (gifted by my Semper Fi Sgt. Maj. grandfather), and 4" black suede wedge's- I embraced myself and shared love
*The wicked humor of it is...I found a way to be creatively nude in a museum When Lisa Brogden-Childrey hired me at Rockport, she said " I like you because through the bubbly exterior, I know you have a dark sense of humor." The Southern, suburban me typically wouldn't admit it [clenching my 20 pearl strand], but, I do- WINK!
EMBRACE YOURSELF. SHARE LOVE.
FASHIONABLE KISSES,
LORD TYKAI
