#and phosphor is the symbol of healing

[autumn-foxfire]

The way I see it, the ice is needed to save dabi in the only way that he can reconnect with his mom and siblings. Shouto’s phosphor move is a metaphor on how dabi needs to embrace his ice (like shouto his fire) to save himself and find his own identity. Had dabi stayed the way he was, hori would’ve needed to come up with another way to save him, but without this cheat code that makes saving him easier and full of messages. Don’t forget the parallels, hori loves those. Sometimes too much I think.

+ I forgot to say, todofam is also meant to symbolize civilians who need to step up because their inaction and mistakes in the past led to someone becoming a villain. I think it’s ridiculous because the siblings were children and should have been comforted in their guilt in the hospital room and also talk about how their brother’s actions made them feel.

I genuinely don't know why Hori thinks ice has this healing property that Dabi needed, especially when he has a brother and mother who have powerful ice quirks who want to help him already. I genuinely just can't wrap my head around the decision.

And yeah, it feels a bit disingenious to say the family should have done more for Dabi when over half the family were children (and would then become his victims) and one of the adults was a victim of abuse herself that would have impacted her judgement. It's easy to say that Rei should have done more in her shoes but when she had a family that had no interest in helping her, a husband that was spiralling into an unhealthy obsession and four children to look after, you realise the amount of pressure she was under.

The Todoroki storyline has just took a turn I really can't enjoy which is a shame because it was one I had previously been pretty invested in.

[haleigh-sloth]

This is clearly just me reaching too much but .. what if phosphorus is not the name of Shouto's attack but something produced by the clash between him and Dabi?

Apparently phosphorus's most common forms are red and white.

White: highly flammable, self-igniting and toxic (it caused the phossy jaw disease, this had me 👀 for a second)

Red: stable, much less volatile and flame retardant

And that made me think that maybe, just maybe, Shouto and Dabi's energy clash (?) is what awakens the regenerative side

Possibly!

@hamliet wrote a whole thing on it here. Explaining everything about the two colors and their uses and intents and whatnot.

Idk is “phosphorous” is supposed to be literal, as in the actual element itself will result from the attack and heal, or if it’s symbolic of Shouto’s intentions: putting out a fire, the right way. Without shutting down someone else’s feelings, invalidating the pain they’re dealing with, which is what their parents did to Touya. Idk—there’s a lot of possibilities we just gotta wait for.

I’m still anticipating something new for Touya’s quirk maybe but I’m kinda just sitting back and waiting.

Of all the things I was anticipating, Horikoshi’s little chemistry lesson was not one of them.

He really just dropped this bomb (pun intended cuz phosphorous lol) and then walked away from it and said “Eh, they’ll figure it out, maybe.” Lmao.

This man is a menace.

This is what I mean when I say he surprises me in the best ways and has been a lot recently.

With that being said, please title the next chapter “The Right Way to Put Out a Fire”

Coriander and cilantro are the same plant, but I know in cooking "coriander" usually means the seed and "cilantro" usually means the leaf. Do these distinctions apply in herablism and, if so, what are the uses/symbolism of each?

Symbolically they both represent love, lust, Health, and Healing. It’s also said that coriander seeds can be used to draw love to a person, stimulate passion, and to keep a lover faithful.As far as actual herbal uses consuming coriander (and Cilantro but mainly the first) can help digestion problems including an upset stomach, high cholesterol, loss of appetite, hernia, nausea, diarrhea, bowel spasms, and intestinal gas. Coriander or cilantro is a wonderful source of dietary fiber, manganese, iron, and magnesium as well. In addition, cilantro is rich in Vitamin C, Vitamin K, and protein. They also contain small amounts of calcium, phosphorous, potassium, thiamin, niacin and carotene.The entire plant is actually also known as Chinese parsley and has many of the same benefits as regular parsley. 

Note: I am not a certified professional, simply a very passionate hobbyist. Despite having gone to culinary school, most of my herbalist knowledge comes from mentors, personal research, and experience. A medical professional’s advice should be sought after and taken over mine.

Here in the states we think of Georgia as “The Peach State,” however, peaches were first cultivated in China where they are considered a symbol of immortality and friendship. Peaches have many health benefits which are related to the nutrients within the peach, such as, the dietary fiber, low carbohydrate, abundant vitamins, including vitamin C, vitamin A, vitamin E, and niacin, as well as minerals, such as, potassium, cooper, manganese, and phosphorous. Because of the rich nutrients within the peach, there are many health benefits of eating peaches. TAKE A BITE OUT OF THESE HEALTH BENEFITS OF THIS JUICY SUMMERTIME FRUIT: 1. Healthy bones and teeth. Peaches contain phosphorous, which along with other minerals helps strengthen bones and teeth. Phosphorous also aids in the prevention of some bone diseases, like decalcification, which can lead toward osteoporosis. Eating foods like peaches that contain phosphorous, along with calcium and vitamin C, which are also found in peaches, these play important roles in strengthening jaw bones and gums, which helps keep the teeth healthy. 2. Strengthen the immune system. The antioxidants in peaches, such as, vitamin C and zinc are required for the normal functioning of the immune system. Both zinc and vitamin C affect collagen healing, and subsequently wound healing. Zinc and vitamin C also have antioxidant properties, which can help fight infections. 3. Anti-aging. Peaches are a great source of zinc, which also has anti-aging properties. Also, zinc interferes with the aging process of male reproductive organs, by boosting the levels of testosterone in the body. Peaches either eaten or put on the skin have been shown to be a great natural moisturizer. The peach is in the almond family and often the oils of the peach can be used to make cosmetics when almond oil is not used. Additionally, it has been reported that peaches have a positive effect on the scalp to reduce hair loss. 4. Protect the nervous system. Peaches have been shown to decrease neurodegenerative disorders, such as, Alzheimer's disease. It has also been shown to decrease the risk of macular degeneration. https://www.instagram.com/p/BtpjFUCDIU4/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=56hfo0blur1x

Tim Smith swears authenticity: as I wrote this letter I was driven to tears several times. All I could do was keep looking at the drawing of the fairy and imagine your divine face. first I wanted guidance from Christ and Jah. Then I realized they have no context or reference for our fake, simulated reality. Also they become corrupt pieces of shit which I had to learn the hard way. Gaea was my last ditch effort, the only true source of Divine Light that could guide me out of the darkness I was enveloped in.

Now I know there is a direct pipeline for this light to emerge from Gaea or howsoever She wishes to be named and praised, and that this pipeline ends in the hearts and minds of human women. I cannot choose “women”. I must choose “woman”. I choose you Nicole. I always did. In fact, It makes me wonder if any of this was free will or choice…or if our meeting was in fact an intention of Gaea all along. It does not matter. all that matters now is that we both have the information we need to make an informed choice about marriage. I’ve made my position clear and it won’t change in the face of eternity.

  Our marriage agreement would be based on you being the “intellectual vessel” responsible for protecting me from satan the deceiver’s wicked lies and corruption. I would be the “physical vessel” charged with your protection, even at the cost of my own life. That’s right. I would give up eternal life with no hesitation if it meant saving your life. ANY COST. DEATH BEFORE DISHONOR. with intellectual guidance and physical protection who could bar our path? what is there we could not accomplish with Gaea’s oversight? I cede you the right to hold me to any of these promises, word for word. my eternal love and devotion goes freely to you now. Walk in peace Nicole. what mythical creature did you always compare me to? The Phoenix. Well the phoenix has risen from the ashes and with Gaea’s strength, is ready to fly any and all to safety under Gaea. The phoenix’s loving empathic tears will heal your wounds. It’s song will frighten enemies and fill loved ones with courage and joy. What is the phoenix alone? What is the phoenix without the intellect and might of the Red Dragon? nothing I submit. Gaea has depicted the nature of our bond as being like an atomic bond. The very basis of existence. Iron phosphate it is called. Fe3P. its chemical structure is that of an equilateral pyramid(Egypt anyone) Phosphorus as we all know, is a gas and the very basis for the existence of Light. Nicole you are the phosphorous or Gaea’s Divine Light which creates. Tim Smith is the 3 iron molecules. Iron combined with phosphorous could be called “Holy Metal” whats the venus or female symbol? whats the mars or male symbol? what is the definition of our eternally harmonious union? “Venus creates with Divine Light while Mars divides with Holy Metal.” the divine light of creation merged in perfect unison with the wielder of holy metal or the almighty sword. What could possibly be more righteous and just?

Believed to be one of the oldest oilseed crops, sesame seeds and sesame oil have recently started to make a name for themselves. The reason for this sudden popularity is that the new experimental generation of chefs and recent studies have started to highlight the health benefits of this oil. Indians, Africans, Southeast Asians and Middle Easterners have been using sesame oil in their cuisines for ages. Apart from cooking, it is also used for cosmetic and healing purposes, and for massages and treatments.

The cultivation of sesame seeds is believed to have originated in the Indian Subcontinent, about 5500 years ago. It was an easily cultivable crop, as it grew in drought-hit areas. The seeds are considered to be a symbol of prosperity and health. Sesame oil has been highly regarded in the Mediterranean and other cultures for centuries and finds extensive use as a massage oil in Ayurvedic treatments.

Different extraction processes give different colour and flavour to the sesame oil. The cold press process mostly used by the Westerners produces a pale yellow coloured oil. While the Indian sesame oil is golden, East Asian oils are dark brown as they are extracted from roasted seeds. The roasting of seeds gives a distinctive flavour to the East Asian oil and hence it is used mostly as a flavouring agent. The other two types of oil are used for cooking purposes.

Sesame oil is specifically rich in Vitamin K. Besides that the oil comprises monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, saturated fats and palmitic acid. It also contains Vitamin B complex, Vitamin D and E, and phosphorous. Some of the proteins present in the sesame oil are beneficial for hair.

Middle Eastern countries, China, Korea and south Indian states of Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh extensively used Sesame oil for cooking purposes. Though refined oils have replaced these traditional oils, some parts of Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh still use sesame oil for making curries and gravies. It is also used in the spice powder served with idlis and dosas. Low-grade oil is also used in soaps, paints, lubricants etc.

According to Ayurveda, sesame oil is most effective in balancing Vata and can also be used for Kapha, two of the three doshas or the regulating forces of nature. The oil is used for massage because the oil is nourishing, warm and has calming properties.  It is also used for healthier teeth and gums, and for lubricating bowels.

Basic facts about Sesame oil:

Botanical name of Sesame - Sesamum indicum

Family - Pedaliaceae

Common Name - Til

Sanskrit name - Tila

Native region and geographical distribution - Though sesame is grown all over the world, Myanmar is the leading producer of sesame oil, producing 18.3% of the world’s total sesame oil production. China is the second largest producer of sesame oil, followed by India.

Interesting facts - It is believed that the famous phrase “Open Sesame” from the Ali Baba tale in “One Thousand and One Nights” actually refers to the sesame plant. Sesame seeds grow in a pod that opens when it matures. It is believed that “open sesame” suggests the unlocking of the treasures.

Holocaust Remembrance Day

THIS MUST NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN!!! April 12, 2018 World War II: The Holocaust One of the most horrific terms in history was used by Nazi Germany to designate human beings whose lives were unimportant, or those who should be killed outright: Lebensunwertes Leben, or "life unworthy of life". The phrase was applied to the mentally impaired and later to the "racially inferior," or "sexually deviant," as well as to "enemies of the state" both internal and external. From very early in the war, part of Nazi policy was to murder civilians en masse, especially targeting Jews. Later in the war, this policy grew into Hitler's "final solution", the complete extermination of the Jews. It began with Einsatzgruppen death squads in the East, which killed some 1,000,000 people in numerous massacres, and continued in concentration camps where prisoners were actively denied proper food and health care. It culminated in the construction of extermination camps -- government facilities whose entire purpose was the systematic murder and disposal of massive numbers of people. In 1945, as advancing Allied troops began discovering these camps, they found the results of these policies: hundreds of thousands of starving and sick prisoners locked in with thousands of dead bodies. They encountered evidence of gas chambers and high-volume crematoriums, as well as thousands of mass graves, documentation of awful medical experimentation, and much more. The Nazis killed more than 10 million people in this manner, including 6 million Jews.

An emaciated 18-year-old Russian girl looks into the camera lens during the liberation of Dachau concentration camp in 1945. Dachau was the first German concentration camp, opened in 1933. More than 200,000 people were detained between 1933 and 1945, and 31,591 deaths were declared, most from disease,

malnutrition and suicide. Unlike Auschwitz, Dachau was not explicitly an extermination camp, but conditions were so horrific that hundreds died every week.  

Holocaust Memorial shows a German soldier shooting a Ukrainian Jew during a mass execution in Vinnytsia, Ukraine, sometime between 1941 and 1943. This image is titled "The last Jew in Vinnitsa", the text that was written on the back of the photograph, which was found in a photo album belonging to a German soldier.

German soldiers question Jews after the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising in 1943. In October 1940, the Germans began to concentrate Poland's population of over 3 million Jews into overcrowded ghettos. In the largest of these, the Warsaw Ghetto, thousands of Jews died due to rampant disease and starvation, even before the Nazis began their massive deportations from the ghetto to the Treblinka extermination camp. The Warsaw Ghetto Uprising -- the first urban mass rebellion against the Nazi occupation of Europe -- took place from April 19 until May 16 1943, and began after German troops and police entered the ghetto to deport its surviving inhabitants. It ended when the poorly-armed and supplied resistance was crushed by German troops.

A man carries away the bodies of dead Jews in the Ghetto of Warsaw in 1943, where people died of hunger in the streets. Every morning, about 4-5 A.M., funeral carts collected a dozen or more corpses from the streets. The bodies of the dead Jews were cremated in deep pits.

A group of Jews, including a small boy, is escorted from the Warsaw Ghetto by German soldiers in this April 19, 1943 photo. The picture formed part of a report from SS Gen. Stroop to his Commanding Officer, and was introduced as evidence to the War Crimes trials in Nuremberg in 1945.

After the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, the Ghetto was completely destroyed. Of the more than 56,000 Jews captured, about 7,000 were shot, and the remainder were deported to killing centers or concentration camps.

This is a view of the remains of the ghetto, which the German SS dynamited to the ground. The Warsaw Ghetto only existed for a few years, and in that time, some 300,000 Polish Jews lost their lives there.

A German in a military uniform shoots at a Jewish woman after a mass execution in Mizocz, Ukraine. In October of 1942, the 1,700 people in the Mizocz ghetto fought with Ukrainian auxiliaries and German policemen who had intended to liquidate the population. About half the residents were able to flee or hide during the confusion before the uprising was finally put down. The captured survivors were taken to a ravine and shot. Photo provided by Paris' Holocaust Memorial.

Jewish deportees in the Drancy transit camp near Paris, France, in 1942, on their last stop before the German concentration camps. Some 13,152 Jews (including 4,115 children) were rounded up by French police forces, taken from their homes to the "Vel d'Hiv", or winter cycling stadium in southwestern Paris, in July of 1942. They were later taken to a rail terminal at Drancy, northeast of the French capital, and then deported to the east. Only a handful ever returned.

Anne Frank poses in 1941 in this photo made available by Anne Frank House in Amsterdam, Netherlands. In August of 1944, Anne, her family and others who were hiding from the occupying German Security forces,were all captured and shipped off to a series of prisons and  concentration camps. Anne died from typhus at age 15 in Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, but her posthumously published diary has made her a symbol of all Jews killed in World War II.

The arrival and processing of an entire transport of Jews from Carpatho-Ruthenia, a region annexed in 1939 to Hungary from Czechoslovakia, at Auschwitz-Birkenau extermination camp in Poland, in May of 1944. The picture was donated to Yad Vashem in 1980 by Lili Jacob.

Czeslawa Kwoka, age 14, appears in a prisoner identity photo provided by the Auschwitz Museum, taken by Wilhelm Brasse while working in the photography department at Auschwitz, the Nazi-run death camp where some 1.5 million people, most of them Jewish, died during World War II. Czeslawa was a Polish Catholic girl, from Wolka Zlojecka, Poland, who was sent to Auschwitz with her mother in December of 1942. Within three months, both were dead. Photographer (and fellow prisoner) Brasse recalled photographing Czeslawa in a 2005 documentary: "She was so young and so terrified. The girl didn't understand why she was there and she couldn't understand what was being said to her. So this woman Kapo (a prisoner overseer) took a stick and beat her about the face. This German woman was just taking out her anger on the girl. Such a beautiful young girl, so innocent. She cried but she could do nothing. Before the photograph was taken, the girl dried her tears and the blood from the cut on her lip. To tell you the truth, I felt as if I was being hit myself but I couldn't interfere. It would have been fatal for me."

A victim of Nazi medical experimentation. A victim's arm shows a deep burn from phosphorus at Ravensbrueck, Germany, in November of 1943. 

The photograph shows the results of a medical experiment dealing with phosphorous that was carried out by doctors at Ravensbrueck. In the experiment, a mixture of phosphorus and rubber was applied to the skin and ignited. After twenty seconds, the fire was extinguished with water. After three days, the burn was treated with Echinacin in liquid form. After two weeks the wound had healed. This photograph, taken by a camp physician, was entered as evidence during the Doctors Trial at Nuremberg.

General Patch's 12th Armored Division, forging their way towards the Austrian border, uncovered horrors at a German prison camp at Schwabmunchen, southwest of Munich. Over 4,000 slave laborers, all Jews of various nationalities, were housed in the prison. The internees were burned alive by guards who set fire to the crude huts in which the prisoners slept, shooting any who tried to escape. Sprawled here in the prison enclosure are the burnt bodies of some of the Jewish slave laborers uncovered by the US 7th Army at Schwabmunchen, May 1, 1945.

These dead victims of the Germans were removed from the Lambach concentration camp in Austria, on May 6, 1945, by German soldiers under orders of U.S. Army troops. As soon as all the bodies were removed from the camp, the Germans buried them. This camp originally held 18,000 people, each building housing 1,600.

There were no beds or sanitary facilities whatsoever, and 40 to 50 prisoners died each day.

On the 18th of April, the workers of the Thekla plane factory were locked in an isolated building of the factory by the Germans and burned alive by incendiary bombs. About 300 prisoners died. Those who managed to escape died on the barbed wire or were executed by the Hitler youth movement, according to a US captain's report.

Burned bodies of political prisoners of the Germans lie strewn about the entrance to a barn at Gardelegen, Germany on April 16, 1945 where they met their death a the hands of German SS troops who set the barn on fire.

MEMORY PALACE

13 November 2017 - 6 January 2018 Campbell Arcade, Melbourne

This exhibition exists within a subterranean corridor and therefore echoes the subconscious mind. As you traverse this liminal space each window may become a vista to recall memory, whereat art becomes therapy. In Memory Palace you become a performer of walking-meditation, activating architecture as a mnemonic device, and allowing art to serve a transformative function. 

Curated by Jake Treacy Design by Jessica Pitcher

Noah Spivak installs a new atmosphere within the vitrine, wherein components of time and memory cloud and evaporate. The exterior tiles have been cast and their surfaces sensitised with photo chemicals, allowing a subterranean crystallisation to manifest in an otherwise lightless environment. The vitrine space becomes a fragile landscape of slow tectonic movements, of crystalline growth and microcosmic eruptions, demonstrating the shifting processes of material and therefore thought. The minimalism experienced in his work is meditative, as the work evolves over time, performing the measured nature of memory.

David Mutch illuminates ruminations in ruins. His work searches for authentic experiences and the sublime in contemporary urban spaces, and these daemon etches capture light to reveal repeated gestural markings inspired by the graffiti on nearby train windows. Like abstracted hieroglyphs or scratched phone screens, their messages are phosphorous and prophetic, opening up orphic doorways to psychological reverie. They haunt their subterranean location, suspended in time, stirring the subconscious and conjuring a liminal experience. Here, we are allowed to drift in and out of thought, presence and being, as the screen becomes a map for our own hauntology.  

James Murnane takes up the devotional object as means of encountering the ever ancient, ever new. The votive of an icon becomes transmuted through its materiality, attuning the spiritual. Through resplendent plumes, articulated intuitively through paint and carved wood, we are presented a moment to experience our inner life: the experience of a heart. This ethereal moment shimmers with the lustre of pearls and rainbows, reflecting evanescence upon iridescent surfaces - flashing, shining, and dispelling blindness. In an arcing choir, the panels sing a secular space into a sacred one through a universal language that is not necessarily understood, yet felt.

Aaron Christopher Rees presents a moment for a disembodied experience. Here the ghost in the machine is being conjured, summoned through glassy panels and channelled upon shinning black tablets. It’s psychic TV for optic apparitions, flickering in the basement of the city. In the underground seeing is not believing – it is a transient place, where the flow of energy is recorded and transmitted through two Orphic screens. We see the hauntings of this place and gaze back into the past. Reality, no longer concrete, slips and suddenly becomes fluid. Perception becomes otherworldly.

Darcy Smith performs memory through the boundaries of materiality and experience. In her installation, our eye dances across surfaces and into fields of colour, where a purple void is eclipsed by a pearlescent film, and an opaque obsidian glass hovers above a semi-circle. The generosity of these materials in combination with one other speaks to the composition of a healing space, articulating an overarching transformative construction to be experienced. The glass in particular is strong yet fragile and has the ability to change (through elemental contact), much like the body.

Angela Louise Powell channels energy through a monolithic sheet of brass. This metal is highly conductive, and carries the memory of the artist’s body in its newly contoured topography. Hammered and punctured, it presents a seductive reminiscence of actioning and transformation, becoming a conduit for liminality. Its mirrored surface demonstrates an emotional threshold, a physical boundary though accessible as a psychical veil, reflecting the psychological space constructed within this underground civic corridor – a place between platforms, and therefore states of mind.

Natasha Johns-Messenger reminds us that seeing can be an oracular action. In her site-specific installation, architecture becomes the new framework to experience the future and the past. It is a reflexive moment – a moment when we witness seeing ourselves see. In a way, it is like realising the stars we see in the night sky are no longer. It is beyond memory, it is present. And this is a high-tenor performance, wherein all the cosmologies of the world reverberate upon the glassy pane at once. Perception, then, is a clairvoyant distillation, and vision must be second-sight.  

Jake Treacy mythologises the history of place. Within this dilapidated vitrine, rests a monolithic soap block in hues of marbled pink alluding to the goddess Aphrodite. In the myth of her birth she washes upon the shore in a pearlescent carriage, emerging from the seafoam fully grown. Hers is a symbol of fertility, and similarly new thoughts may arise like pearls from the oceanic depths of our memory. As water washes through the vitrine the block becomes activated, cleansing the space and filling it with the scent of myrtle and rose – sacred attributes of Aphrodite.

ShengYang Zhu tracks the celestial dance of the sun above, and how its healing, floating trajectory through the sky nourishes the earth below. Employing traditional Chinese medicine, she has alchemically dyed silk swaths with vegetables and plants, allowing their natural colours to remedy and imbibe restorative attributes into the textiles. Individually they are the therapeutic tools to rebalance the body, and collectively serve as colour meditations, like a solar banner wavering between dawn and dusk.

Ben Taranto offers prismatic visions through the flames of a fire, where the majesty of light is refracted and reconfigured through a new jewel-encrusted topography. These fragments of glass translate light as the sun does when reflected upon the veins of rivers from an aerial vantage, creating a permeance through kaleidoscopic-geographic veneration. However this crystalline monolith also recalls a portal of modern technology, broadcasting a microcosmic vision of the altering effects waste portends upon the landscape. Like a screen it draws you in and keeps you there; it pushes and pulls; it is the endless dim of a setting sun upon the horizon of a slow burning ocean.

Ria Green romances our sensibilities through a hazy lens, allowing our senses of awe and wonder to take flight into a place amongst clouds. Ephemeral moments are remembered through glassy surfaces, vistas recalling the sublime often experienced in nature. Her painting explores an evocative landscape of the imagination and of experience, using abstraction as a field for feeling and photography as personal memory. Some moments are opaque and we find ourselves in a grove of blossoming colour; other times voids of transparency allow us to slip into other celestial realms, moving beyond the picture plane and the present.

Nanou Dupuis sweeps a fluid gesture across a transparent film; in one calligraphic motion, a single wave washes in poetic articulation, like a vaporous plume drifting across mountains, or a black dragon snaking through clouds. Her painting is an action and cascades the architecture of space, pushing interior and exterior worlds, pulsing duality between what is seen and unseen, light and shadow, tension and flow. Her materials are mixtures of organic minerals and synthetic pigments, providing a new language of alchemy that speaks the visual experience of transcendence, beyond consciousness.

Uri Auerbach makes a machine for mediation. The capsule space has been transformed into something of an incandescent Zen garden, cultivating mindfulness. Like a constellation of memories and thoughts, the lights glow and extinguish across an infinite mirror, singing a luminous chorus between dusk and dawn, east and west. In the darkness we enter into a new meditative headspace: like a spark in the night, a thought ignites, setting off a phosphorous chain reaction of reveries and ruminations. These tidal rhythms of electricity are on an infinite loop, an electric river of unpredictable sequences. To be enlightened, we must surrender to the twin processes of time and repetition – repetition as a symbol of circularity, continuity and acceptance.

Vivian Cooper Smith casts stones across time into ambiguous formations. In his site-specific paste-ups the imagery depicts his grandfather’s rock collection, collected from across Australia and demonstrating the passing of time and ultimately mortality. However, the wisdom of the stones resonate personal memories, collected and stored into their mineral veins. Stranded far from the landscape from where they were torn they hover between now and then, here and there, and between presence and absence.  The passing of time may wash over us all and like the stone, smooth out those rough surfaces into a more patient and resilient version of ourselves.

“Mnemosyne, said the Greeks, is the mother of the Muses; the Greeks, who invented many arts, invented an art of memory…the most fundamental and elusive of human powers that will plunge us into deep waters.”

-          Frances Yates, The Art of Memory (1966)

"There are strange and wondrous things in these lands of darkness …I must intoxicate myself on magic perfumes in order to fathom the secrets that lie hidden in the abysses of the Unconscious."

-           Carl Jung, The Dionysian Self (1911)

Threading The glacier head Looking hard for Moments of shine From twilight To twilight Utter mundane

A mountain shade Suggests your shape I wish to melt Into you

Spark the sun off me

I was thinking the same as the other anon, it looks like ice to me.

But that doesn’t mean his skin isn’t healing underneath it. Maybe the glowing light in his chest is Shouto’s quirk not only cooling him off but helping him heal…? I know we had that phosphorous attack earlier… There’d be some beautiful symbolism in that.

Sorry but there are several other people who think it’s skin and not ice. There are also a ton of other artistic choices showing his body breaking and being back to normal again later.

Y’all can think what you want

I literally don’t care

You can compare it to panels where it’s undeniably ice and see a difference—but I’m gonna tell you right now do not come counter me and argue with me on this because that irritates me to no end.

Just being countered for literally no reason.

I don’t agree, I don’t think it’s ice. I’m leaving my opinion it at that until I’m proven wrong.
