Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from June 27, 2019 Favoriting

Flash Strap's avatar View Flash Strap's profile Favoriting

This is where all of culture and all of time are collapsed into one seductive portal and viewed through the panoramic lens of the exotic. Come and embark on an armchair-travel virtual-voyage to the heart of timeless darkness and beyond; embrace the numinous monolith of the exotic immensity. Let us find that place where hybridization meets its destiny as pure fantasy. Let us become observers observing those others who are ourselves. You wear your mask and I'll wear mine.

Zebras are black with white stripes or white with black stripes? Seems to me that was proven scientifically, but I forget which way it was.

Avatar 7:15pm
Flash Strap:

I'm not incredibly knowledgeable about Hudson River School, but I would say it's in my wheelhouse... I'm always cutting up their paintings out of old books for collage

Very much in the vein of the American / European obsession for panorama, with echoes of the Romantic sublime. American exoticism to the point of mythicism. some great tropical paintings too, a lot of those guys did en plein air in the West Indies, etc.
