Valente Celle Tomb, 1893, The Staglieno Cemetery, Genoa - Italy

Sculptor: Giulio Monteverde (Bistagno, Alessandria, 1837 - Roma 1917)

The funeral monument called “Eternal Drama” represents a real Dans macabre, the futile attempt of life to escape the inevitable embrace of death. The sculptor Giulio Monteverde underlines, in this sculpture, the contrast between the sensuality of the beautiful young woman who personifies Life (caught in the moment in which , wearied by the vain struggle, she is about to surrender herself to the terrible spectre who has chosen her as his prey) and the rigid impassiveness of Death which seizes her. http://grabschonheiten.diary.ru/p81440998.htm?oam

Wording matters. It doesn’t just affect a person’s willingness to check the box and be counted — it also highlights the existence of those identities, Kerith Conron said. Perhaps if we weren’t so regularly confronted with a simple choice — “Are you male or female?” — our thinking about gender wouldn’t be so binary.

The wine we really drink is our own blood. Our bodies ferment in these barrels. We give everything for a glass of this. We give our minds for a sip.

Research for Art Blitz performance

Jasper is the alter-ego of performer and artist McKay Bram. Jasper's first showing will be Saturday, August 9th, 8:00-10:00pm at Press Coffee and Tea Lounge. 

If an alter-ego is a second personality of a person, then Jasper aims to catch the moment of transition, from one ego to another. Jasper is defined by the continuous changing, not by the end result of the change. 

In this way, Jasper is an anti-ego.
