I'm missing something. Please. Come back.

Calm and yet unruly.

Gerard Geer’s “Imaginary Forests.”

Currently on view at Beinart Gallery in Melbourne, Australia is artist Gerard Geer’s fascinating solo exhibition, “Imaginary Forests.”

Having spent the past two winters in one of the most locked-down cities in the world and confined to the 5-km radius of a concrete jungle, Gerard Geer has used this body of work to explore all of the places he’d usually spend time in over the colder months. Through Imaginary Forests, Geer examines his own desires to reconnect with nature and expresses them using the insect creatures in his works.

Gerard Geer, based in Melbourne, merges anatomy, chemistry and creativity in his artistic practice. His work is an outgrowth of his fascination with biological processes and anatomy. Geer creates fantastical hybrid creatures by using a combination of naturalistic articulation of animal specimens and amalgamations of interspecific forms.

ICE is carrying out forced sterilization on women detainees.

This is eugenics.

The police need to be defunded and ICE needs to be abolished. Unfortunately, there is no current U.S. presidential candidate advocating for either of these things. They do not need any training or reforming. They do need to be prosecuted immediately.

This is unconscionable. People need to go to prison over this. Don’t tinker around the edges — abolish ICE. Completely.
