When I first heard Ontario textile artist‚ Karen Trask‚ speak in our class on September 20‚ 2017‚ I was left hanging by a thread.

In his work‚ I would argue Hans Mielich is trying to visually transpose the wealth‚ masculinity‚ and power

During the apartment scene‚ the song “The Court Of the Crimson King” by King Crimson is playing in the background; The lyrics in this song help portray the idea of mankind’s demise. Crimson is the colour ascribed to someone who is furious‚ for example how God must feel toward mankind for its sins. But the wise never refer to God directly‚ for it seems nutty and conjectured. Instead they refer to God’s ordained agents‚ in this age personified as crimson-seated monarch. All the diabolical-sounding protests
