the shackleton party calls to me so much. i’m obsessed with it. and i’m so sad about the dogs. :< they didn’t deserve to die. i wish i could offer comfort to their spirits. maybe a nuzzle or telling them they’re not forgotten.

Finished painting a set of pendants for a commission about Shackleton's Trans-Antarctic expedition. Endurance, whales, Frank Hurley and penguins. Sea pottery officially captured my brain.

I cannot stop thinking about how the Antarctic men of the Shackleton traded things to one another and sort of created their own exchanged. The idea that these men thought of things to gift one another and created a social connection to one another by picking out their own personal belongings or rocks or items. And they gave them as gifts to one another. Effectively giving them meaning to be alive and to carry on. And then I think about items and the things the men of the Franklin Expedition probably gave one another. Clothing. Books. Cups. Tobacco. Chocolate. Things to give. Things to give. Even in the worst of it all there is something they can give. And they gave. To one another.

#OTD in 1938 – Death of Tom Crean, Irish seaman and Antarctic explorer, from Co Kerry.
The reasons why history has been unkind to Crean are twofold: first, the politics of post-independence Ireland; and second, what George Bernard Shaw described as the greatest of evils and worst of crimes — poverty.
Tom Crean was an Irish seaman and Antarctic explorer from Annascaul, Co Kerry. He was a member of three major expeditions to Antarctica during the Heroic Age of Antarctic Exploration.…
