AD/DRESSING THE WOUND
Tom Isaacs
21 June - 8 July
Ellipsis Gallery, Level 1, 41 Crown St, Woolloomooloo (Above Viand restaurant). Open: Wed-Sat 3-8pm.
'Ad/dressing the Wound' is an exhibition of performance and textile works that creatively engage with ideas of mental health and wellbeing, trauma and healing. Drawing inspiration from psychoanalytic theories about mental health, such as Sigmund Freud’s writings on repression and the symptom, and from the work of German artist Joseph Beuys, with his iconic use of felt and his exhortation to 'Show Your Wounds', Tom Isaacs has used covering and uncovering as metaphors for the repression of and care for psychic wounds. Joseph Beuys proposed that we uncover our wounds so that they do not fester, but covering with a medical dressing, an emergency blanket or a humble quilt may also constitute a powerful act of care.
Sat 1 July, 2-5pm: Artist's talk & Shivah performance
Sat 8 July, 5-8pm: Freud's Ghost performance and closing event
‘Ad/dressing the Wound’ is supported by the NSW Government through Create NSW.

A Vaccine for Parkinson's?
Is a vaccine within reach for People with Parkinson's? And a smell test for early detection?
At the moment, there are no cures for Parkinson’s, but a confirmatory diagnostic would allow them to get the right treatment and get the drugs that will help to alleviate their symptoms.
Professor Perdita Barran, University of Manchester
I have received several emails from friends in the last few days who have sent me articles about two different topics for Parkinson’s. One is a vaccine for…

Since the tumblr sexyman poll from Twitter was almost entirely animated characters, and I haven't seen a poll here yet about the real life dudes Tumblr has been/is obsessed with, I'm genuinely curious what the result will be...

🚨 Triple Frontier concept art + "new" old photos! 🚨
I'm so excited about this! During a TF search spiral (don't we all have those?) I actually hit gold when I stumbled across Greg Berry's website. He was the Production Designer of the movie and made a book as something for the crew to look back at - and as an intro to the film.
It's really worth a look, because it has gorgeous concept art, pictures of certain spaces (the bar, Lorea's house) before they shot and how they envision it to be. There's also an image for the storage container, but this seems to be considerably smaller and different than what they ended up using.
CHECK OUT THE FULL BOOK AT https://www.gregberry1.com/film/triple-frontier
Obviously, there are also pictures of the guys which we've never seen those before. YAY!! Or actually - I shared a cropped pic of Benny with some friends and I noticed that one made it onto a Garrett fan IG already the other day, haha. But aside of that... gorgeous 'new' old stuff. I've cropped those images from the website for your convenience, so hope you'll enjoy! I don't own any of this obviously, it's all Greg Berry (bless him), so if you share these pics elsewhere please credit the man and link to his site... it's only fair!
HELLO Francisco putting on his tact vest 💜 Some close ups (nobody likes you Tom, go away):
Benny, Santi, go find your caps!
Fucking love this picture. Why were we robbed from this happening in good light? Francisco... check you out.
Let's see some more of Santiago:
Love love love. Here's when they find Lorea:
Have some Will crops.
And last but definitely not least - where are the Benny girlies at? You're getting FED:
Bonus picture: the shot below from an interview with Mark Russell about the VFX in TF
Once again, definitely go check out the art book - it's gorgeous!
