Trying to diagnose the creak on Tashas Nicolai with some helpers

 

This past weekend, I helped put on Terre Haute's first ever Help Portrait event at Lighthouse Mission. Help-Portrait is a global movement of photographers, hairstylists and makeup artists using their time, tools and expertise to give back to those in need. I thoroughly enjoyed hearing people's story and watching their reaction as they saw their picture.

 

When we first arrived at the shelter to set-up our photo equipment, I bumped into Jeffery who finished doing his shelter duties in the morning. He had a long beard, dirty clothes, and messy hair. I invited him to get his free picture at our event and told him about how we can give him a portrait for free! His eyes lit up and quickly ran upstairs where he was staying. The next time I saw him was when he asked me to take his picture. His beard was gone, he was wearing a suit, and his hair nicely combed. He said to me with a grin on his face, "Remember me?". After I took his picture, I showed him the results. His eyes lit up again and was excited to see how well it turned out. He told me that he loved to get dressed up and hadn't done so in a while. Help-Portrait was the first time in a long time where he can dress up and look nice. He later started showing his picture to other people around the shelter convincing them to get their pictures taken.

The church Mary Help/Rescue (Mariahilfkirche) in the Styrian capital of Graz is a pilgrimage church and parish church of the parish Graz-Mariahilf in the deanery Graz-Center of the church administration Stadtkirche Graz. Attached to the church is the Minorite convent Graz.

History and design

In the 13th century settled monks of founded by St. Francis of Assisi Order of Minors in Graz at the place of today's Franciscan monastery, to which they had to cede in 1515 the square. After having spent many years provisionally, they were finally able after a donation by the princes of Eggenberg and Emperor Ferdinand II to settle at today's Mariahilf sqaure (now Lend district). The built in 1607 in Baroque style church, designed by Giovanni Pietro de Pomis, a pupil of Tintoretto, was completed in 1611. He built a towerless church according to Venetian models, which was closed towards the top with a triangular pediment in the manner of classical temple fronts. Through a conversion to plans by Josef Hueber the Church 1742-1744 received its present form with the two towers. Since 1783, the church serves as a parish church.

The gable above the church portal crowns today a Baroque statue of Archangel Michael which abuts Lucifer to hell. The other figures of the portal laterally above the middle door are the religious saints Francis of Assisi and Anthony of Padua and above the door the Virgin Mary.

The interior of the church looks plain and sober. The large dome over the presbytery was as well as the stucco decoration in 1769 removed. The thereafter by Josef Adam Molk created frescoes have also been removed (after not quite 100 years) and gave way to today's simple design. The image of the Virgin Mary on the high altar is considered a painterly masterpiece of Pietro de Pomis.

The sacristy, built 1636/37, has rich stucco ornaments (Johann Cajetan Androy attributed) and pews of the Regency style, at the sacristy is also located the chapel Bonaventurakapelle (Baptistery of St. Bonaventura, Triebenegg'sche crypt chapel), built from 1635 to 1640, with stucco in auricular style of Mathias Camin, Master of Mariazell, and a high Baroque altar in scagliola.

South of the church is the cloister of the Minorite monastery, which is followed by the treasury chapel. This one was created 1769-71 to accommodate votive offerings of pilgrims, but none of which have survived. It shows itself consistently late Baroque, the facilities, especially the altarpiece, is from the period of origin, walls and vault lunette caps adorn miracle scenes in tone-in-tone painting by Joseph Adam Knight of Mölk (1773)

Through another courtyard one accesses via a representative staircase the former summer refectory (the Minoritensaal), one of the most beautiful secular Baroque rooms in Graz.

Current use

To date, the monastery premises are inhabited by Friars Minor. The monastery houses also the Cultural Center with the Minorites, in which take place events in the fields of music, literature and visual arts.

In addition take place in the treasury chapel of the monastery services of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, a Rome-united church, and the Russian Orthodox church of Mary Protection in Graz as an ecumenical accommodation.

Interior and exterior of Mariahilferkirche in recent years have been skilfully restored.

 

Die Kirche Mariahilf (Mariahilfkirche) in der steirischen Landeshauptstadt Graz ist eine Wallfahrtskirche und Pfarrkirche der Pfarre Graz-Mariahilf im Dekanat Graz-Mitte der Stadtkirche Graz. An die Kirche angeschlossen ist das Minoritenkonvent Graz.

Geschichte und Gestaltung

Im 13. Jahrhundert siedelten sich Mönche des von Franz von Assisi gegründeten Minoritenordens in Graz am Platz des heutigen Franziskanerklosters an, an die sie den Platz 1515 abtreten mussten. Nach vielen provisorisch zugebrachten Jahren konnten sie sich schließlich nach einer Schenkung des Fürsten von Eggenberg und Kaiser Ferdinands II. am heutigen Mariahilfer Platz (im heutigen Bezirk Lend) ansiedeln. Die 1607 nach Plänen von Giovanni Pietro de Pomis, einem Schüler Tintorettos, in barockem Stil erbaute Kirche war 1611 fertiggestellt. Er errichtete eine nach venezianischen Vorbildern gestaltete turmlose Kirche, die nach oben mit einem Dreiecksgiebel in der Art klassischer Tempelfronten abgeschlossen war. Durch einen Umbau nach Plänen von Josef Hueber erhielt die Kirche 1742–1744 die heutige Gestalt mit den beiden Türmen. Seit 1783 dient die Kirche als Pfarrkirche.

Den Giebel über dem Kirchenportal krönt heute eine barocke Statue des Erzengels Michael, der Luzifer in die Hölle stößt. Die anderen Figuren des Portals zeigen seitlich oberhalb der mittleren Türe die Ordensheiligen Franz von Assisi und Antonius von Padua und oberhalb der Türe die Gottesmutter Maria.

Das Innere der Kirche wirkt schlicht und ernst. Die große Kuppel über dem Presbyterium wurde ebenso wie die Stuckdekoration 1769 entfernt. Die danach von Josef Adam Mölk geschaffenen Fresken wurden ebenfalls (nach nicht ganz 100 Jahren) entfernt und wichen der heutigen schlichten Gestaltung. Das Bild der Jungfrau Maria am Hochaltar gilt als malerisches Hauptwerk Pietro de Pomis'.

Die Sakristei, erbaut 1636/37, verfügt über reiche Stuckornamentik (Johann Cajetan Androy zugeschrieben,) und ein Gestühl des Régence-Stils, bei der Sakristei befindet sich auch die Bonaventurakapelle (Taufkapelle zum Hl. Bonaventura, Triebenegg’sche Gruftkapelle), 1635 bis 1640 erbaut, mit Stuck im Knorpelwerkstil von Mathias Camin, dem Meister von Mariazell, und einem hochbarocken Altar in Stuckmarmor.

Südlich der Kirche befindet sich der Kreuzgang des Minoritenklosters, an den die Schatzkammerkapelle anschließt. Diese wurde 1769–71 erstellt, um Votivgaben der Wallfahrern aufzunehmen, von denen sich aber keine erhalten haben. Sie zeigt sich geschlossen Spätbarock, die Ausstattung, im Besonderen die Altarretabel, ist aus der Entstehungszeit, Wände und Gewölbestichkappen zieren Wunderszenen in Ton-in-Ton-Malerei von Joseph Adam Ritter von Mölk (1773).

Durch einen weiteren Hof gelangt man über eine repräsentative Treppe in das ehemalige Sommerrefektorium (den Minoritensaal), einen der schönsten profanen Barockräume in Graz.

Heutige Nutzung

Bis heute werden die Klostergebäude von Minoritenbrüdern bewohnt. Im Kloster befindet sich auch das Kulturzentrum bei den Minoriten, in dem Veranstaltungen aus den Bereichen Musik, Literatur und bildende Kunst stattfinden.

Außerdem finden in der Schatzkammerkapelle des Klosters Gottesdienste der ukrainischen griechisch-katholischen Gemeinde, einer rom-unierten Gemeinde, und der russisch-orthodoxen Kirchengemeinde zu Mariä Schutz in Graz, als ökumenische Beherbergung, statt.

Inneres und Äußeres der Mariahilferkirche wurde in den letzten Jahren aufwändig restauriert.

I have had some really bad things happen to me over the past week, so I am diving head first into what I know best: my dolls. These dolls were supposed to have outfits made for them, but the person who was supposed to make them is out of my life. Any help would be appreciated! Please note I am on a very tight budget.

 

For this Aurora, I am looking for her reversible skirt.

with the thoughtful support of Danspace Project and the Eureka Commissions Program by Onassis USA, deadbird is a film-reimagining of a live-work by devynn emory that was initially going to premiere at Danspace Project in NYC in spring 2020. this film is a grief space for devynn’s body as a hospice / COVID-19 nurse and spirit medium, and is also a balm to reimagine care. deadbird has always served as a container to process the intensity of nursing and honor the lives of those who have passed in their care. this became even more important during COVID-19.

 

in collaboration with Danspace Project, Onassis USA, Bartram’s Garden, and PICA, this project expanded to a national tour with deadbird and can anybody help me hold this body being presented in New York, Philadelphia, Portland, and LA. in each location, public grief altars will be tended by a local BIPOC artist who will be honoring the land they reside on and creating space for you. in Portland, this artist is Maya Vivas. if you are not in one of the touring cities or prefer to practice differently, instructions on how to create a grief space of your own are offered online at www.deadbird.land/at-home.

 

deadbird has and will continue to take many forms, and serves as a container to process and bridge devynn’s work in the world as an edgewalker, spiritual guide, bodyworker, choreographer, performer, and hospice nurse.

This is a pic that I found stashed away from my trip to Guatemala this past August. I took so many pics that a lot of good ones got lost in the mix. We have a fundraiser coming up on Dec 3rd that I need to bring a bunch of pics to so I was going through them all tonight and thought i would post this one up for you guys to see.

This was the little girl who's house we were working on. What you are looking at is her living room, where we kept alot of the supplies. While we were pouring concrete I turned around and noticed her sweeping up the concrete dust that was all over the floor...she was adorable.

I just finished reading "The Genius of Dogs" by Brian Hare (brianhare.net/the-genius-of-dogs/). It was a fascinating look at how the cognitive abilities of dogs do warrant a status of exceptional intelligence. Though obviously their smarts seem lesser when compared to our own, it's usually based on our tests. Or to quote Albert Einstein, “Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”

 

One obviously bad test in that spirit is how well these canines are at helping me work.

 

I had a horrible headache today, one of those lightning-bolt-down-the-side-of-your-head / vice-grip-on-your-temples kind. 4 of the 5 dogs I'm babysitting this week decided today was the perfect day for marathon barking sessions. I wasn't happy. But here's the strange thing: Norm is usually the worst dog for barking - in volume, octive and volume. In fact, Buhunds were bred for barking.

 

But for some reason, he seemed particularly sensitive to my pain today (very out of character). He insisted on lying on top of me (his way of showing affection) while I worked.

 

Sure, I couldn't use the laptop while he licked my one hand, and insisted on getting pet with the other. And he was absolutely useless helping me figure out how to sort based on a complicated sub-query. But I'd say he helped me in a different way, based on a different test, by showing me some love, not to mention not barking (even with obnoxious screaming neighbourhood kids running around just outside the window and construction going on down the street).

 

Best assistant, ever.

 

(Tucker, the Jack Russel also pictured, was not helpful. Totally part of the problem. But he's cute, and somehow never misses a photo-op.)

This photo was taken at the winter transit camp in Slavonski Brod, Croatia. Coming through the registration area after a long train ride from Serbia, the exhausted man had a hard time pushing the wheelchair over rough terrain. This is where a Red Cross volunteer stepped in to help.

 

The Croatian Red Cross does an amazing job throughout the camp, and has been doing so since the start of the crisis. The volunteers in the camp help in many ways - exiting/entering the trains, distributing water, food, clothes and other necessities, running the tracking service and various other jobs. For more information, visit www.hck.hr or www.icrc.org

The squirrels and chipmunks help the ground-foraging birds (mainly Juncos and Jays) to clean up the spilled seed from the feeders. I enjoy watching them handle the small seeds... their finger dexterity is amazing! I often have to retreat to achieve focus... after many years these engaging rodents are now totally accepting of my presence! This gal is as close as that allowed by my tele lens (~6 ft.). Her sex is quite obvious... she's plump with the new crop of pups that will soon appear. The species litter size is cited as 6 to 8.
