Silte Church (Swedish: Silte kyrka) is a medieval Lutheran church on the Swedish island of Gotland, in the Diocese of Visby.
Silte Church dates in its entirety from the 13th century. During restorative work carried out in 1971-72, the remains of a stave church was however found under the floor of the presently visible church, pre-dating the present church with around one hundred years. The oldest part of the now visible stone church is the choir, dating from the middle of the century and in an early Gothic style. The nave is only slightly later, and apparently by the same workshop, while the tower seems to have been added at the end of the century.
The church is an almost unaltered medieval church. Unusually, even the window openings are original. These, as well as the portals, are decorated with stone dressings in alternating colours. The southern portal is also decorated with carved ornaments in Norse style. One of the choir windows contains some original stained glass window panes, dating from the time of the church's construction. Inside, the church is decorated with frescos from four different periods. The earliest date from the time of the church's construction, and are purely ornamental. On the western wall of the nave, a number of frescos from circa 1300 depict several saints: Philip, Paul, Peter, James and Bartholomew. Next to these is a fresco depicting scenes from the Passion of Christ; these date from the middle of the 15th century. A final set of frescos, dated 1495, adorn the souther wall of the nave.
The church has two particularly noteworthy furnishings: the altarpiece and the baptismal font. The altarpiece is unique in its style on Gotland. Its outer wings are painted, and depict St. Michael, Mary and, on the back, the annunciation. These painting date from circa 1500. The central panel, by contrast, is decorated with wooden sculptures depicting the final judgement, and date from the 13th century. The baptismal font dates from the late 12th century and is thus older than the stone church. It was made by Master Sigraf, and is richly sculptured.[1] Most other furnishings such as pews date from 1902, when a renovation was carried out. The pulpit is however from the middle of the 18th century.

Silte kyrka är en kyrkobyggnad som tillhör Havdhems församling i Visby stift. Kyrkan är centralt belägen i Silte socken.
Den välbevarade grunden till en tidigare stavkyrka påträffades under den nuvarande kyrkans golv vid en restaurering utförd 1971 - 1972 av arkitekt Leif Olsson. På triumfbågsväggen finns även avtryck av stavkyrkans långhusgavel. Den medeltida murade kyrkan består av rektangulärt långhus med smalare rakt avslutat kor i öster samt kyrktorn i väster. Byggnadsmaterialet är i huvudsak sandsten. Koret är från 1200-talets mitt, långhuset tillkom något senare. Vid 1200-talets slut tillfogades tornet, stympat vid okänd tidpunkt. Kyrkans fasader är vitputsade, med hörnkedjor och omfattningar i huggen olikfärgad kalksten. De smala rundbågefönstren är ursprungliga. Tornets ljudgluggar utgör en heterogen samling av hopplockade stenhuggeridetaljer. Långhuset och det lägre koret täcks av tegelklädda sadeltak, tornet kröns av en åttkantig spira. Tre ingångar finns: långhus- och korportal i söder samt tornportal i väster. Långhusportalens tympanonskiva har huggen slingornamentik. Långhuset täcks invändigt av två tältvalv, åtskilda av en bred gördelbåge. Det kryssvälvda koret upplyses av ett trekopplat östfönster samt ett mindre sydfönster. Ringkammaren täcks av ett högt sittande tältvalv. Triumf- och tornbågarna är svagt spetsbågiga. Kalkmålningar finns från 1200- och 1400-talen. Glasmålningarna i korets östfönster är från byggnadstiden. Inredningen härstammar i huvudsak från en restaurering 1902.

That's what this colour is.
Grateful for a colour? Well why not. Anything that has the ability to simultaneously calm and energize, deserves it's place in these 30 days of gratitude. And it took until uploading to see it, but the elusive heart has finally appeared (along with a bunny rabbit and an eagle it would appear).

KINTSUGI
The Restorative Art of Naoko Fukumaru
Kintsugi, (pronounced keen-tsue-ghee), uses powderedgold over lacquer-repaired seams to magnify the beauty that emerges from breakage. This 500-year-old method ofmending damaged ceramics evocatively reminds us of theremarkable human capacity to overcome challenges and adversities. Artist and professional ceramics conservator, Naoko Fukumaru, combines state-of-the-art restoration techniques with traditional kintsugi repair methods to create work that highlights imperfections while exploring new possibilities for this noteworthy craft. Here in the Calvin and Mayho Tanabe Gallery, our kintsugi exhibition features Fukumaru's experimental work, which courageously divergesfrom tradition to express the redemptive potential [really?] born from the act of sensitively reconstructing something that has shattered. For Fukumaru, practicing kintsugi is not merely about repairing damaged physical objects, but finding new nways to celebrate the history, artistry, and symbolism of each piece by choosing to cherish rather than trash what has been broken.
Fusing kintsugi-repaired vessels with unconventional materials like thread, textiles, and surprising plaster forms of mushrooms, succulents, crystals, and animals, Fukumaru conveys a journey from vulnerability to strength. Urushi lacquer is at the heart of much of Fukumaru's work. In addition to helping rejoin the broken fragments, urushi can be layered to develop texture and three-dimensional forms.
It can also be used as a paint, which draws from the maki-e lacquer decorating tradition, where surface designs are meticulously painted with urushi then sprinkled with powdered gold or other precious metals to accentuate the designs. However, instead of the typical maki-e motifs of plants and animals, Fukumaru's urushi decorations are reminiscent of neurons, sparking connections between disparate pieces that she has attentively attached to the restored vessels. Delving into what it means to be beautifully broken, Fukumaru expands the horizon of kintsugi as a powerful art form.
The exhibition continues in the Pavilion Gallery

Yoga is a great means for many people to sweat, stay fit and get a good workout. But the most important thing that people tend to forget is that their body needs some light and relaxing style of yoga flow time and again to restore and unwind themselves.
Restorative work on windows and doors involves removal of failed modern latex paints and glazing compounds, and reinstallation of linseed based glazing putty and solvent free linseed based paints. The historic linseed based materials will long outlast the modern finishes, which for a building like Kolb Studio (hard to access for repairs) is a good investment and more sustainable approach. GCA Photo by Terri Attridge.
Kolb Studio clings to the edge of Grand Canyon. It was the home and photographic studio of Grand Canyon pioneers, Emery and Ellsworth Kolb, and was begun in 1904. Today, this historic studio is open year-round. It contains an exhibit hall, bookstore, and information center operated by the Grand Canyon Association.
During 2013 and 2014, with help from donors, GCA is in the process of rehabilitating this valuable piece of Grand Canyon History in order to keep it available for generations to come.
Work includeds: Addressing structural degradation of Kolb Studio by:
a) rectifying drainage problems from public sidewalks and corresponding retaining walls,
b) stabilizing the concrete entranceway to assure safe continuing access to the facility
c) repairing and replacing exterior building features (e.g. log and shingle siding, structural beams, gutters, wooden porches) in order to assure long-term structural integrity of the building and
d) protecting restored exterior surfaces with paints, sealants and other coatings.
Caption: In a restorative circle, the talking piece holds space for each voice (a staged image).
Restorative justice can take a form of a restorative circle meeting. Every person sitting in the circle has time to speak and to get what they need from the meeting, while feeling supported by those who are there for them. Circles are also often used when there is more than one person harmed or more than one person responsible – or for more community involvement or supporters to take part. In this type of circle, people who have experienced the same harm can come together, using the talking piece in turn to have their voice heard. Support is provided by specially trained facilitators.
Background:
Restorative justice is a voluntary process of supported contact between a person who has caused harm and someone who has experienced harm. Where appropriate, this can also include their families and supporters.
Restorative justice does not always occur between a person who has experienced harm and/or a person who has caused that harm. It can also be used to address secondary harm caused by organisations or systems, conflict experienced across a community group and/or circles of those who have experienced similar types of harm. This is often referred to as ‘restorative practice’ or a ‘restorative approach’.
Restorative justice takes many forms, based on what is best for the parties involved, their needs and their continued safety. This is explored through the planning, preparation stages and continued risk assessment. Approaches include face-to-face conferences or meetings, letter-writing, video conferencing, ‘shuttle dialogue’ and healing circles.
Restorative justice has many evidence-based benefits for those who have experienced harm and also those who have caused harm, their families and communities. These can include being given a choice, empowerment, recovery, improved wellbeing and the process can also help prevent people from causing further harm.
Restorative Justice in Scotland:
It’s a voluntary and consent-based process in Scotland and any party can discontinue their engagement in the process at any point without losing support from services in place, to ensure trauma-informed practice continues.
Restorative justice can be considered by adults, children and young people in Scotland in a way which is responsive to trauma and takes a rights-based approach.
Research shows people in Scotland want the option of exploring restorative justice across a range of crime types, including those considered serious and sensitive in nature. This does not mean it will always go ahead, but even the choice is found to be empowering.
Restorative justice operates in parallel to the criminal justice and youth justice systems in Scotland and is never used an alternative to this. Outcomes achieved and/or agreed through restorative justice have no impact on any decisions taken throughout the criminal justice process.

Background:
Restorative justice is a voluntary process of supported contact between a person who has caused harm and someone who has experienced harm. Where appropriate, this can also include their families and supporters. It offers a safe space for open dialogue, empathy and active listening in an attempt to help them understand what happened and why, the impact the crime had on their lives and what needs to happen to allow everyone to move forward.

Born into Brothels, by Ross Kauffman and Zana Briski, is the winner of the 77th annual Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature. A tribute to the resiliency of childhood and the restorative power of art, Born into Brothels is a portrait of several unforgettable children who live in the red light district of Calcutta, where their mothers work as prostitutes. Zana Briski, a New York-based photographer, gives each of the children a camera and teaches them to look at the world with new eyes.
The photographs taken by the children in Born into Brothels are available for purchase in the Kids' Gallery, and as a signed limited-edition portfolio, or as a compilation in our companion book. 100% of proceeds from sales of the children's prints go directly to support their education and well-being.
www.kids-with-cameras.org/aboutus/
Kids with Cameras was founded in 2002 by photographer Zana Briski out of her work teaching photography to children in Calcutta's red-light district. We believe that photography is an effective tool in igniting children's imagination and building self-esteem. We believe in the power of art to transform lives, for both the artist and the viewer.

In Calcutta, there are over 7,000 women and girls who live and work as prostitutes. In 1997, New York-based photographer Zana Briski went to Calcutta to photograph the prostitutes, penetrating through the web of brothel owners, pimps, police, local politicians and organized crime syndicates to better understand their lives.
While she was living in the brothels she developed relationships with a group more stigmatized than the women: their children. Spurred by their fascination with her camera, Zana began to teach them photography, and to see the world through their eyes.
From 2000 to 2003, she conducted weekly workshops and taught them camera basics, lighting, composition, the development of point-of-view, editing, and sequencing for narrative. The goal of the project was to provide a safe place for the kids to be themselves, learn, have fun, and in the process, come to believe in their own self-worth. She watched in wonder as the children came back with vibrant self-portraits, family pictures, and street scenes that offered stunning tableaus of Bengali life.
Zana and filmmaker Ross Kauffman documented the children and their stories in the film "Born into Brothels," which went on to win over 25 major awards, including the 2005 Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature. Through the film, audiences all over the world learned of and fell in love with the spirited and resilient young photographers. They witnessed how art and education can empower children growing up in difficult circumstances to transform their lives.
Zana founded Kids with Cameras in 2002 to raise money and awareness for the children through print sales, exhibitions, film festivals and a book of their work. The children's images have been exhibited in Calcutta, Europe and all over the U.S. A book of their photos was published in 2004. In order to help more children from Calcutta's red-light district, we have also been raising money to develop a safe home specifically for the children of prostitutes to provide an opportunity for them to learn, thrive and lead future generations. An educational curriculum based on the film has also been created to reach out to students and teachers across the U.S. and around the world.
Kids with Cameras has since sent other committed and passionate photographers to teach photography to children growing up in areas of poverty, abuse or conflict. We have developed workshops for Palestinian and Isreali children in Jerusalem, child domestic workers in Haiti and the garbage collecting community in Cairo
Directed by Jack Winget, a joyfully restorative tale set amongst the wine, wisteria and Mediterranean sunshine. Longing to get away from the malaise of post-WWI London and the stasis of their respective marriages, housewives Lotty and Rose are enticed by an ad in the paper that reads, "Small castle on the Mediterranean, Northern Italy. To be let for April. Cook, gardens, ocean view." Impulsively, they rent the Italian villa, recruit two very different English women to share the cost and plan their escape. All four women dive into the experience of a lifetime, shed inhibitions and blossom anew - rediscovering themselves in ways they could never have imagined.
