“We are the hollow men

We are the stuffed men

Leaning together

Headpiece filled with straw. Alas!

Our dried voices, when

We whisper together

Are quiet and meaningless

As wind in dry grass

Or rats' feet over broken glass

In our dry cellar

Shape without form, shade without colour,

Paralysed force, gesture without motion.”

“Mama, come here

Approach, appear

Daddy, I’m alone

’Cause this house don’t feel like home 🏡

 

If you love me, don’t let go

If you love me, don’t let go”

“Take a trip into my garden

I’ve got so much to show ya

The fountains and the waters

Are begging just to know ya”

“I wonder if the snow *loves* the trees and fields, that it kisses them so gently? And then it covers them up snug, you know, with a white quilt; and perhaps it says, ‘Go to sleep, darlings, till the summer comes again’.”

“I ain’t got no time, no

’Cause when this day is done

I still got shit to run

I could make it for you

’Cause you’re so beautiful

I’d rather drink you up”

“I am strongly of the opinion that, after the age of twenty-one, a man ought not to be out of bed and awake at four in the morning. The hour breeds thought. At twenty-one, life being all future, it may be examined with impunity. But, at thirty, having become an uncomfortable mixture of future and past, it is a thing to be looked at only when the sun is high and the world full of warmth and optimism.” ―P.G. Wodehouse

Donald Moffett’s “He Kills Me” is a particularly damning critique of political apathy toward people suffering from AIDS during the time. In Moffett’s original, an image of a Day-Glo target is paired with an image of Ronald Reagan stamped with the titular words. Here it’s been installed as a step and repeat wallpaper, at once both amplifying its message and all but guaranteeing that numerous selfies will be taken in front of it.

The exhibit also explores the political and social issues of the decade, including the AIDS crisis and the Cold War.

 

Artist Donald Moffett’s piece “He Kills Me,” displays alternating images of former President Ronald Reagan and hypnotic spirals behind a TV screen that shows a video of people, while the title “People with AIDS” is displayed.

“He Kills Me” (1987) by Donald Moffett, a poster originally designed for use in protests of the federal government’s inaction during the AIDS epidemic of the late 1980s, exemplifies this theme. The poster features an image of a smiling Ronald Reagan and the words “He Kills Me” in a simple, blocky font. Moffett uses bold colors, an aesthetic reminiscent of contemporary advertising, to make the poster attractive to the public. The brightness of the design is a stark contrast to its message.

“The problem, of course, was that [he] saw the world in black and white. And he got to decide what was black and what was white. You can't love a person who lives that way without fearing him too. Maybe even hating him a little.” ―Khaled Hosseini, The Kite Runner

“Honey, on your knees when you look at me

I’m dressed like a fucking queen and you’re begging, ‘please’

I rule with the velvet tongue

And my dress undone

And I’ll get you lost but I’m having fun”

The staggeringly well peserved Conwy Castle was built by Edward I, during his conquest of Wales, between 1283 and 1287. UNESCO considers Conwy to be one of "the finest examples of late 13th century and early 14th century military architecture in Europe" and it is classed as a World Heritage Site.

“You spin me right round, baby

Right round like a record, baby

You spin me right round, baby

Right round round round” 🎶

“The very basic core of a wo/man's living spirit is [their] passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.” ―Christopher McCandless
