Australian aboriginal rock art at Gabarnmung.

* * * *

“Let’s hope we are learning more about the ‘arts of noticing.’ This kind of attention is not about relationships between the human brain and ‘the world out there’ but is all about immersion in living ecologies. Aboriginal people I have worked with learn about it from their elders. As children they are not encouraged to ask questions, just to be attentive. After a while they know. It is know-how more than knowledge. When an Aboriginal tracker sees things in the environment that the rest of us fail to notice, this is not a matter of a specialised psychology, but a matter of intergenerational attunement in a particular world. Noticing one thing may also depend on being attuned to many others: the sun, the wind and the way finches flock in that part of the country. It’s an art, but not necessarily an individual one. It comes in bursts, or in waves.”

~ Stephen Muecke, 'Academia Letters', November 2020

outcast of the village

#werewolf #folklore #slavic #poland #folk clothing #folk costume #wolf #me when The Peasants (2023) i hate that movie #nothing against it I actually love how it's made along with the soundtrack and references to polish paintings #but having watched it in cinema it triggered so many traumas that i wanted to immediately leave the screening room #kto się wychował na polskiej wsi ten się w cyrku nie śmieje #art #pl #polblr #how much more tags can i fit to get people to notice this? let's see!

Some not so serious doodles about the idea where Silco survived and Warwrick!Vander found him. I did these as fanservice for ME! Especially the clothes thing

(have fun trying to figure out the reading order of the third sketch dump)

#my art #sketchy sketch #arcane #silco #vander #jinx #vi #these are not that serious lol #tho even if I did take the scenario seriously I would make vi punch silco as the first thing #if I make the doodles adorable and funny enough maybe people will not notice that I erased Isha from existence #my unpopular opinion is that isha is not needed and would only come in the way for the family moments with these four so #isha is no more sorry not sorry #I have evil ideas about the final third part for this maybe #i glanced at various references that's it #that's my queue to leave #zaundads if you squint
