Mehh it's after 12

the world gets a little better every time you actualise kindness and act with love. We are all human, you never know what others are going through. Smile at a stranger, wave thanks to people in traffic, appreciate customer service. It’s the small acts that add up. 

On March 19 2000 the Simpsons predicted the financial crisis of President Trump that we’re currently experiencing.

maybe geminis hate astrology bc they’re so intellectual and have a great sense of self that if astrologers pinpoint one (1) accurate trait of a gemini, they’ll fire back with a different trait from their vast artillery of knowledge and say astrologers are wrong because they’re a gemini “but they act like this, not this. haha, you’re wrong. you can’t label me!”

but this is based on a lot of geminis in my life and the most important gemini even told me she’s taking classes on astrology bc shes supposed to learn about something she doesn’t typically believe in. i love her bc she doesn’t give me shit about liking astrology to my face but she definitely does not believe in it. geminis have a true sense of self and they hate labels huh.

just gemini tings ✨

Jealousy of a mother

Its amazing that when I look in your eyes I see the jealousy & hate.

Is it my fault you ran away from love?

Or is it because of the pure love I have for your child or the unconditional love she has for me.

makes you sick to your stomach doesn't it.

Shame on you for trying to use her fragile heart against our bond.

Your a monster!

I just can't wait for the day she see it with her own eyes.

Scott Listfield’s “Fury Road” at Beinart Gallery.

Opening on Saturday, October 5th, 2019 at Beinart Gallery in Brunswick, Victoria, Australia is artist Scott Listfield’s fantastic solo exhibition, “Fury Road.”

Listfield, an American artist, hopped on a plane to Australia 3 days after graduating from a small college in the United States. His destination was convenient: his father was working in Australia at the time.  But his real goal was to go very far away, where he had never been, and without much of a plan for what would come next.

Listfield spent a lot of time wandering alone in an unfamiliar city, country and continent where he barely knew a soul. He explored, took some classes and painted a few landscapes that he deemed “exceedingly mediocre.” He was 21 years old and had no idea what the next chapter in his life might look like. His time in Australia was a brief and strange pause between childhood and adulthood that he knew would not last long.

Upon returning home from Australia, he still felt like an explorer, a stranger in his own home town. He wanted to capture that feeling of wandering alone in a place he had never been before and possibly would never come back to, of being an alien amongst things that feel hauntingly familiar. A lot of Listfield’s experiences from this time inspired his first astronaut paintings. Listfield has been painting astronauts now for a while, but those feelings still resonate today.

For his first solo show in Australia, Listfield wanted to say something about the country where he lost himself before he eventually found himself. He wanted to make paintings about a very wild and beautiful country while admitting to being an outsider: like the astronaut in his work, he is not from the land he is depicting.

“Fury Road” is a series of 18 brand-new paintings which all take place in a desert continent where everywhere there are signs of a civilization that has been left to rot and rust away. Cars, boats, and buildings turn to dust. There are animals here still, but they seem out of place and perhaps out of time. Wandering throughout is the astronaut featured in earlier paintings, now following dusty paths that used to be roads and rivers.

The exhibition will be on view until October 27th, 2019.

Here we are again, taking a bath together! Arabesque (1966) dir. Stanley Donen

Behind the scenes of A Clockwork Orange, 1970

Saint Mary of Egypt (1800). Jean-Baptiste Greuze (French, 1725-1805). Oil on canvas. Chrysler Museum of Art.

Mary of Egypt is slumped over in a desert cave. She reads, repenting her sins while holding a cross to her chest. A lion, looking as sorrowful as she, attends her. It is Greuze’s last major commission, painted for Napoleon Bonaparte’s brother Lucien. Once famed for his scenes of everyday French life, Greuze was now penniless and alone. The sorrowing Mary and equally mournful lion—a saintly attribute that, according to legend, helped dig her grave—may mirror the anguish of Greuze’s own final years.

Ravi Zupa’s “Other Avatar” at Hashimoto Contemporary.

Currently on view at Hashimoto Contemporary in New York City is artist Ravi Zupa’s outstanding solo exhibition, “Other Avatar.”

The exhibition features mixed media works on wood, sculpture and a large scale installation. Highlighting his multifaceted studio practice, the artist draws from a variety of sources for inspiration such as technology, mythology, and both Eastern and Western religion, creating a new and unique universe filled with religious and historic figures as well as anthropomorphic creatures.

By definition, the word ‘avatar’ comes from Hindu mythology, and represents a manifestation of a deity or soul released from their bodily form on earth. In today’s digital age, the word has taken on an entirely new and ubiquitous meaning, defining a graphic image which represents a person on the Internet. In today’s rapidly changing world, we are gods of our own universe, with multiple incarnations of ourselves in various abstract dimensions.

For Other Avatar, Zupa melds the symbolism and meaning of mythologies into the current context of today’s world. The artist views the modern day interpretation of the term ‘avatar’ as an example of the universality and lateral connectedness which he feels deeply inspired by. Zupa’s richly symbolic work is a representation of these themes.

The exhibition will be on view until July 20th, 2019.
