PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES End Credits Scene

Korean artist JeeYoung Lee (previously featured here) continues to amaze us with awesomely imaginative transformations of her tiny 3 x 6 meter (~10 x 20 foot) studio in Seoul. Lee spends weeks, if not months, hand-painting backdrops and building sets and props for each photo she takes. There’s no digital photo manipulation involved, everything you see in these elaborate scenes was created by hand. It’s all very real and incredibly labor-intensive, yet each photo looks like a glimpse into Lee’s vivid dreams.

At the focal point of nearly every photo is the artist herself, her gaze never quite meeting the viewer’s directly. Inspired by Korean fables or personal experiences, these imaginative self-portraits explore “her quest for an identity, her desires and her frame of mind,” according to OPIOM Gallery. “Her creations act as a catharsis which allows her to accept social repression and frustrations. The moment required to set the stage gives her time to meditate about the causes of her interior conflicts and hence exorcise them; once experienced, they in turn become portents of hope.”

Lee’s latest exhibition, entitled Stage of Mind, opens in Bogotá, Colombia in May of this year, and then in Belfast, Ireland starting in June.

LOGINQUITAS

[noun]

distance, remoteness, isolation; separated from others.

Etymology: Latin.

[Siegfried Zademack - Die Wand]

Look.

I have made you a chart. A very simple chart.

People say "You have to draw the line somewhere, and Biden has crossed it-" and my response is "Trump has crossed way more lines than Biden".

These categories are based off of actual policy enacted by both of these men while they were in office.

If the ONLY LINE YOU CARE ABOUT is line 12, you have an incredible amount of privilege, AND YOU DO NOT CARE ABOUT PALESTINIANS. You obviously have nothing to fear from a Trump presidency, and you do not give a fuck if a ceasefire actually occurs. You are obviously fine if your queer, disabled, and marginalized loved ones are hurt. You clearly don't care about the status of American democracy, which Trump has openly stated he plans to destroy on day 1 he is in office.
