Into odd, awkward, niche and forgotten things & places. Feels often odd, akward etc.

— это #подкаст, созданный фотографом Николаем Бирюковым и арт-директором Женей Онегиной.
Он ориентирован на представителей креативных индустрий, особенно тех, кто работает с визуальным контентом. В выпусках обсуждаются актуальные проблемы, с которыми сталкиваются профессионалы: творческие кризисы, взаимодействие с клиентами, переход от работы по найму к фрилансу и обратно. Гости подкаста делятся личным опытом преодоления трудностей и находят общие решения, что делает беседы терапевтическими и полезными для широкой аудитории творческих специалистов.
Due May 1st! Every dime is appreciated to help this wonderful person. #mutualaid #BlackFediverse #Astrology #performanceartist #Visualartist #disability
Dang. I just got my first hate mail since I was, like, in high school. I've also gotten a lot of (rather more polite) questions about it so I figured I'd make a post about it so I can pin it to my profile.
I am a #blind slash #lowVision #VisualArtist. I have been doing art for as long as I have been very slowly going blind, which is over half my life. As for my abilities (or disability): I wear increasingly thick glasses that don't do much for me beyond the very close up (I use my phone's camera to look for things, for example), and have numerous blind spots on top of it. This isn't like what you might expect; it's not black or grey spots. My brain fills it in with what it thinks ought to be there (as does yours), and it does a really terrible job of it. I am incapable of seeing straight lines. I stopped driving a few years ago when I noticed I had a blind spot the size of a car in the other lane - cars would literally just blink out of existence, then back again half a second later. It was a scary realization. My spouse has recently convinced me I need a cane if for no other reason than so I stop running into people in public.
As an artist, I mostly do #watercolor now because I can see my subject (a picture on my phone) and my canvas up close. Mostly I paint bugs because I studied #entomology so I understand the anatomy that I am working with. I started out as a photographer, which I don't do much of anymore because I can't see through a view finder. What I have is degenerative, so I will continue losing pieces of my vision for the rest of my life. I will probably get more into linocuts and sculpture in a few years as watercolor becomes less an option.
I also write, quite often about blind characters! I am 100% self-published, which means they're not perfect, which I think just adds to their charm.

When the living rot on the bodies of the dead
When the combatants’ teeth become knives
When words lose their meaning and become arsenic
When the aggressors’ nails become claws
When old friends hurry to join the carnage
When the victors’ eyes become live shells
When clergymen pick up the hammer and crucify
When officials open the door to the enemy
When the mountain peoples’ feet weigh like elephants
When roses grow only in cemeteries
When they eat the Palestinian’s liver before he’s even dead
When the sun itself has no other purpose than being a shroud
the human tide moves on . . .
By Etel Adnan, “XXXIX” from The Arab Apocalypse.
Etel Adnan was a #Lebanese #American #poet , #essayist & #VisualArtist. Adnan always lived between different languages & cultures. She spoke French, English, Greek & Turkish & lived in Paris, Beirut & California.
#Art was like home to her, something to hold on to; a language that transcends borders and cultures.
‘Colours make visible what the person is trying to say, but silent’.
One of her best-known works is Sitt Marie Rose (1978), in which she writes about the horrors of the Lebanese civil war.
Adnan began writing in French, but gradually discovered the language’s colonial undertones.
Etel Adnan grew up in Beirut, Lebanon, which was under French mandate at the time. Everyone learned French at school. Arabic, which most people spoke, became an inferior language.
I'm itching to get out there, so itchy, I have a lot of camera film ready, there's a huge ongoing project, I want to get going yet it's summer, the sun is too strong and too high, it's also way too warm to be carting about big cameras in a backpack. C'mon autumn and winter, I need you, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon.....
