Foregrounding Métis history and aesthetic practices, this painting includes around150,000 to 250,000 bead-like dots and blends Belcourt’s knowledge of beadwork traditions with her expertise in medicinal plants. Various plants are represented, as well as insects, raindrops, dew and birds. The patterns have been adapted from nature, with several inspired by traditional Métis floral beadwork. A visual ode to water, the work recognizes the life that water brings to everything and everyone.
Lovely place to visit. Have been before but this part was locked...Really worth a visit if you're in the area - extremely peaceful inside...

The following words have been taken from the English Heritage website...
This small Augustinian priory was founded by Roger FitzOsbert in about 1216. It is dedicated to Olaf, the 11th-century king and patron saint of Norway whose stark Christian message was ‘baptism or death’.
An inventory taken in 1536 records little of value and the priory was probably already in decline when it was suppressed a year later. In 1547 Sir Henry Jerningham converted the buildings to the north of the cloister into a private house, but little of this survived when the priory was dismantled in 1784.
Around 1825 the floor of the refectory undercroft was raised and the building was converted into a cottage which was occupied until 1902.
The hidden gem in this unassuming ruin is its 14th-century refectory undercroft. Its vaulted brick ceiling is an important early example of the use of brick in England. Supported on Purbeck marble columns, it is still almost complete and retains much of its original plasterwork.
The only parts of the church to survive are a stretch of the south aisle, the west wall and parts of the north wall. The foundations of some of the brick-faced piers that supported the cloister arcade are visible, but nothing remains of the west range except the flintwork cloister wall, which is pierced near the north end by a 14th-century doorway.
At the back of the refectory is a fragment of Jerningham’s 16th-century house that escaped destruction, which includes a reused 14th-century doorway.

10 Year Project
Each month I take a favourite photo from ten years back, and re-edit it, using current tools and knowledge.
In this case I took a whole different approach to the cropping, and then adjusted the light, sharpness, pink... :-)
This is the last picture that I shot during my London workshops, and it was in collaboration with Jen Brook, a passionate model who is asking photographers to turn her dreams into reality with her Dreamcatcher Project.

GrainCorp's Sheep Hills silos were built in 1938.
The artwork on them was created by Melbourne-based artist Adnate.
Adnate started in graffiti and street art in Melbourne in the mid-2000s. His portraits tell the stories of indigenous people and their native lands, particularly the stories of Aboriginal Australians.
At Sheep Hills, Adnate depicted Wergaia elder Uncle Ron Marks and Wotjobaluk elder Aunty Regina Hood, alongside two children Savannah Marks and Curtly McDonald, to celebrate the richness of the area's indigenous culture.
The night sky represents elements of local "dreaming" and the overall image signifies the exchange of wisdom, knowledge and customs from the elders to the next generation.
Adnate's large-scale works can be found in various settings throughout Australia and the world.
Europe, The Netherlands, Overijssel, Hengelo, Tuindorp, ROC van Twente (uncut)
The city of Hengelo is often called the 'metal city' because of its industrial facilities. The former foundry (ijzergieterij) of the Stork factory is shown here. It was constructed in 1902 and later was used for the maintenance of industrial appliances.
It served this purpose until the end of the 90s and was redeveloped into a school for professional education (ROC Twente) in 2009 by Harry Abels (IAA Architecten) and restoration architect Maarten Fritz (Architectenbureau Fritz).
Like we mostly do, we asked permission to enter. After gaining it (‘OK, but please leave after 5 minutes’), we walked into the astounding redeveloped industrial space. And met a security crew that looked at us somewhat dubiously. Time for a chat: ‘You’re out in force in today’ (there were 4 of them). ‘We’re here because of Corona’, and they told that they were astonished by the number of tourists that have started to visit the facility. ‘This is no tourist attraction’. ‘But you are !” and smiling I showed them a new leaflet ('Tuindorp-route') of the municipal tourist office (VVV) in which the building, its history, and architecture are featured.
We talked some more, and one of the guards told us that she knows the building well - her father had worked there, and during a holiday she had worked there too, as a temp.

Knowledge opens the door of the world.

Graffiti on an annex of the abandoned youth hostel Op Sinjoorke (1953). For more than 50 years, it was the stopping point for travellers from all over the world, looking for an affordable place to stay in Antwerp.
A closed shop-front (знання translates as 'knowledge') in Chernivtsi, Western Ukraine.
Named for the black ("cherny") oaken walls which surrounded the city until they were destroyed by the Mongol invasion of 1259, Chernivtsi has historically been a major cultural and education centre, and sits close to the Romanian and Moldovan borders. Like many parts of Western Ukraine, the city has been part of various nations and empires over the years, belonging to the Kingdom of Moldovia, the Austrian Empire, the Romanian empire, before becoming part of the Soviet states and finally independent Ukraine. The city is nicknamed "Little Vienna," because its architecture is reminiscent of the Austro-Hungarian capital.

When I search google, it often gives the AI response first. Often it is only information from the first website listed. Repackaging information from a website is not intelligent, it is just sealing others work. Knowledge, wisdom and creativity are endeavors of man. Not a fast hard drive and processor.
Can knowledge be recycled?
In the age of internet, every piece of information or knowledge is being updated in every minute or even every second. My friends are always surprised that I am still reading paper books. They said the books are so out-dated and the contents in the books are no more relevant to the fast pace development in the society.
Are paper books a good container for the recycled knowledge? Are there still classics as we called those printed copies of work written by writers and philosophers in the ancient times?
Have a great evening!
