Melancholy

Melancholy

Image by Amy V. Miller
When I was at the Phoenix Zoo last month, I was so taken by the Baboons. They never were one of my favorite animals, but until I saw them there, and the almost human lke emotions they portrayed they really touched me. This was taken through very thick glass and it had a lot of noise to it, I chose to add a spatter effect to the photo. It almost looks like a charcoal drawing to me. His face shows all the melancholy I believe that this group was feeling about being caged up. I hope I captured it.

Yes, the dog is wearing sunglasses. I don't understand the desire to dress up an animal (i.e., dogs - trying doing this to a cat, I dare ya!) in complete costumes but it makes many owners (mostly women from what I've seen) happy and the dogs are okay with it.

Oranjello likes to go into the bathtub. See that metal drain hair-stopper? Gone. He played with it, grabbed it, and moved it somewhere else. We have no idea where his stash is!

And yes: Our bathmats are really gross. But since you WASH in the shower, we fail to see the issue in this, other than aesthetic. Just wash your foot when you get out if you're paranoid. It beats slipping.

Oranjello the cat, bathtub, drain stopper.

About the video:

Contained within our unique animal identity is a strong desire to witness and experience symmetry, a desire informed by an overwhelming lack of its immediate presence in our waking lives. Symmetry and uniformity are present in the video collaboration between Burtonwood and Hammes, abstracted in terms of geometry and pure tones. Folding cubes and squares are accompanied by modulated, warbling sine waves and occasional bursts of distorted guttural voices, suggesting a human presence in a world of pure geometric and sonic abstraction.

Tom Burtonwood is an artist originally from the UK living and working in Oak Park, IL. He is interested in an array of subjects and issues relating to image making, ubiquitous technology and interactive objects. Currently he is working on a series of modular color studies relating to the video game Tetris. Recent exhibitions include The Center for Book and Paper Arts, Columbia College, Chicago; Three Walls, Chicago; Fountain, Brooklyn; Apex Art, New York. Burtonwood teaches at Columbia College and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

Jacob C Hammes is a Chicago based interdisciplinary artist whose range of projects investigate the strained relationships and sites of interaction between humans and the natural world. Hammes is primarily interested in emphasizing the disconnection between the desire to emulate nature and our ability to understand it. Primarily using sculpture, digital media, and hypnosis, Hammes attempts to reveal the struggle to connect with our own animal identity.
Hammes has exhibited and performed extensively throughout the midwest and internationally. Hammes' work and various projects have been reviewed in publications such as Art Papers, Proximity Magazine, and the Leonardo Music journal.

Indian Wild Ass (Khur)

More images from my trip to the Wild Ass Sanctuary in the Little Rann on Kutch on umangdutt.blogspot.com


The Indian wild ass (Equus hemionus khur) also called khur, is a subspecies of the Onager native to Southern Asia. This animal was on the brink of extinction a few years ago, but now their numbers are steadily increasing . . .

The coat is usually sandy, but varies from reddish grey, fawn, to pale chestnut. The animal possesses an erect, dark mane which runs from the back of the head and along the neck. The mane is then followed by a dark brown stripe running along the back, to the root of the tail.
Wild ass graze between dawn and dusk. The animal feeds on grass, leaves and fruits of plant, crop, Prosopis pods, and saline vegetation. It is one of the fastest of Indian animals, with speeds clocked at about 50 km. per hour. Stallions live either solitarily, or in small groups of twos and threes while family herds remain large. Mating season is in rainy season. When a mare comes into heat, she separates from the herd with a stallion who battles against rivals for her possession. After few days, the pair returns to the herd. The mare gives birth to one foal. The male foal weans away by 1-2 years of age, while the female continues to stay with the family herd.
