Firewood for tonight by flyingdocphotos. / Village woman from Bromo, East Java Indonesia. This image was taken in a small village on the outskirts of the Bromo caldera volcanic region of eastern Java, Indonesia. I was playing around with my 100mm macro lens, capturing some spider pictures then this lady appeared down the trail, emerging from the fog. I stood at the side of the road, smilied and raised my camera as she drew close. As she saw me, she smiled, nodded back, posed and I took a snap. Then (I think she thought I was going to take only one photo) she started walking along again, focusing on the uphill path in front of her – and that’s when I clicked my shutter again, capturing this image.

Scarification is a means of permanently marking the skin by cutting alone, without the use of pigments. The scars may be lighter or darker than your original skin tone and may raise up (keloid scarring). There are many ways to produce a scar but the cut must always penetrate the dermis if a scar is to be produced. The result depends as much on your skin as the method used. Black skin in particular is very good at producing pronounced keloid scars and this is a popular alternative to tattooing for people with very dark skin, for whom a tattoo might not show up very well. In many parts of Africa these scars are marks of beauty and a way to identify someone belonging to a particular group. Scarification also may mark one’s status as a civilized being, adult, or member of a specific ethnic group or initiation association.

Excerpt from an essay I wrote about my work. I think this is the first time I’m really getting into detail publicly about the symbolism of my work. ”...The original assignment was to draw something new every day for three weeks on this piece, something inspired by your day, and to add another piece of paper each week. I interpreted the things going on around me and illustrated a piece on Patriarchy. Starting from left to right, the viewer can identify a familiar character from western folklore, little red ridding hood. Earlier this year I had done an artist book on little red ridding hood, the hunter and the wolf both being male, the devouring being sexual, and the two female characters fate resting solely on the male characters in the story. Expanding upon that, the wolves and foxes in this piece all represent male entities. The little read ridding hood is surrounded by wolves, faceless and feetless because she only exists because they do. A tree form grows out of her heart, her only form of expression. She is looking back ghostly little girls, wearing masks of foxes. They are trying to put on the face of little boys, as she pulls the mask off she is disappearing. In front of these figures are heads popping up from the ground, surrounded by phallic mushrooms, poisonous, and suffocating them before they can surface. On the next panel there is a frightening looking wolf or jackal like creature howling out to the viewer. It is up to the viewer to decide if what is coming from him is some sort of phallic organ, an umbilical cord, questioning the gender, or entrails. It leads you to a flock of rabbits, then asking the question if they came from him or if they are destroying him. The answer is in the background above, an outline of a faceless girl riding a fox. In it’s mouth is an arm, relating to castration, which is somewhat of a tribute to Audition and other Asian horror films that inspire me. In the last panel an elongated form of a woman lays on the ground conscious and bare breasted. She represents the two roles women are offered by the patriarchy, sexual object and Mother. The three foxes (sons) chase the daughter (girl) to relate back to the piece, showing how this is a cycle, and also touches upon the desire for male offspring.”

I traced the image back to Wikimedia Commons .....here and here is the edited and abridged version! The Good Wife’s Guide is a magazine article rumored to have been published in the May 13, 1955 issue of Housekeeping Monthly, describing how a “good wife” should act. The text and supposed scan of the article have been widely circulated via email. Lack of corroborating evidence has cast significant doubt on its origins. The article intends to represent an attitude of gender inequality that many no longer accept. The footnote is my own.

I know you think it doesn’t matter, / but I hear you, loud and clear / “She can’t do that”, you say out loud, / “She’ll hurt herself, and besides, she’ll get all dirty and rip her pretty dress”. / “I won’t drag her through here looking like that, / What on earth will people think!” I see you smiling at my brother, / The one with leaves stuck in his hair and grass stains on his knees. / But you don’t see that it matters. / You say, “Sarah’s a girl for Gods sake”, “She shouldn’t be playing rough”, / “What will become of her if she doesn’t know how to behave?” / “No man will ever want her”, (I’m 10, who cares about them?) I wonder, Is this what grandma said to you? So now I climb trees when you’re not looking, / Because I know I can, / And one day I shall conquer mountains / and do it all on my own…. copyright © Marion Cullen. All rights reserved The young lass in this image seemed to be having a lot of fun climbing around in this tree, but the whole time she kept a wary eye out for her parents, (who were not too far off, occupied inside a glass atrium that houses tropical water plants). She seemed rather worried she’d be seen, ducking down at times when she thought they may have spotted her, but she kept climbing none the less. / I admired her spirit and wanted to tell her to never stop climbing trees…like I wish someone had told me.
