“Aramu Muru”

Aramu Muru is an abandoned stone carving in Perou, near Lake Titicaca, known as “Gate of the Gods”. 

It was discovered in the early 1990s and is believed to be an abandoned Incan construction project. The flat stone is approximately 23 ft (7.0 m)square, with a T-shaped niche measuring 6 feet and 6 inches (198 cm) tall carved into it.

Aramu Muru is a popular tourist destination for paranormal pilgrimage. Legend has it that an Incan priest in possession of a golden disk, placed the disk in a small depression in the 'door' (the 'door' being the niche carved into the rock), and this caused the door to open. The golden disk supposedly dropped from the sky.

Our Copyright Problem Submissions

The two Maori artworks (New Zealand does not have a fair use/fair dealing clause for parody/satire, and while this MIGHT qualify as review/criticism, this is tumblr. I am not comfortable saying this is NOT satire):

Kohatu by Selwyn Muru at the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa in Wellington

This Land is Ours by Buck Nin at the Auckland Art Gallery.

The other Indigenous artwork that hit a stumbling block (Kent Monkman's website requested we fill out a form, and Mod Salix couldn't make it load, and other mods didn't find the time, so we erred on the side of caution instead):

mistikôsiwak (Wooden Boat People): Resurgence of the People by Kent Monkman on the artist's website, it is on display in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. commentary: (Art) history as I used to learn it was very whitewashed seeing this large painting harking back to the so called 'canon' but focusing on native view point, gives me life. (anonymous)

The three tumblr artists who did not get back to us! No reposting here!

The Watcher by seamlessoo We've actually been unable to refind this one after the submission for some reason!

Untitled by petersolarz commentary: The colours are so bold and crisp, it reminds me of toothpaste and i get the urge to eat it. Would it be soft, like toothpaste? Or crunchy, like hard candy? I want to eat it to find out, but since I can’t, I can only stare at it again and again as I try and figure the answer. It also feels like tubes of neon illuminating the night, and like a zap of electricity. It’s something about those colours being so bold that draws me in. I want to touch it. I want to crunch it. I want to squeeze it. I can’t think of many paintings that intrigue me so much and draw such a strong emotion. (thegirlsinthecity)

Internet Cat by hannahlockillustration commentary: Look. At. Those. Colours. It’s so bright and vibrant and full of joy. I want to 1) hug the cat, he looks very fluffy, and 2) jump into the screen and live in this vibrant world. It almost hurts my eyes, in the best possible way. I keep zooming in to look at all the little details. I want to burn this image into my eyelids. (thegirlsinthecity)

and one artist who respectfully declined to have their art entered!

The extraordinary exhibition of Selwyn Ruru’s works (Ruru for short). At Mt Cecilia Park Pah homestead gallery in Hillsborough.

Explores elements of ranginui and papatūānuku (sky father and earth mother respectively), of Māori justice and cultural markers that were damaged due to violent acts of colonisation, brutality and injustice. The glossary given was a beautiful summation of key elements within different works, translated in a simplified version in English.

My works look at themes of rongo wairua (or the spirit of peace). Using Māori language in art practice is a way to decolonize work from the limitations that English language places on work that concerns itself with the whenua (land) of Aotearoa. My work is made in Tamaki Makaurau and therefore should respect the language of this place especially in regards to spiritual processes.

Works of mention in Ruru’s practice:

This body of work includes a number of different mediums, each a testament to the breadth of his legacy as an orator, activist, visual artist, broadcaster, playwright, musician and actor (amongst other things!). In perusing the collection, I was struck by the versatility of our Māori artists – particularly in light of Muru and his contemporaries. Amongst this generation, so many actions exist that have shaped the social landscape we find ourselves both witnessing and, in our own contemporary context, navigating now. Highlights include the paintings Half-caste Ruru (2002) and Maunga Piko (1999), which are an honouring of the role that kaitiaki play in our lives, and the whakapapa that connects us to our whenua. I was also particularly taken by the Untitled Figures (circa 1985), having spent a significant portion of time letting my eyes follow the lines as they mimic the shapes of traditional whakairo patterns.

- Nope

Do you use sarcasm a lot?

- No, never~

What sports do you play/have you played?

- I've done ballet, hiphop mix dance, swimming and fencing. I liked the hiphop dance the best, but the group was full of mean girls so I quit when the lessons overlapped with my art school and I had to choose which to continue.

Eye colour?

- I have central heterochromia! Blue with yellow in the middle🥰

Where were you born?

- Finland

What are your hobbies?

- Art, RP, Cosplay, Bowling, Animating and gaming.

Do you have any pets?

- I had a dog, Muru, who is a Tibetan spaniel /jack russel mix baby. She lives with my brother now, she was moved there when I went to uni and my brother and his partner fell completely in love with her😂 She's really happy there and is treated like a spoiled princess that she is.

How tall are you?

- 170~ cm, or around 5'7

Fave subject in school?

- Art, English and History! I would have liked music more if the teacher hadn't been blatantly biased against rock/metal genre.
