celteros: Domhnach Chrom Dubh ~ Chrom (Crom) Dubh (krahm-doov)...

Domhnach Chrom Dubh ~

Chrom (Crom) Dubh (krahm-doov) is the ancient Gaelic/Celtic god who was thought to be able to take the form of a snake or dragon. He comes at Lughnassadh/Lammas during which time he shares prominence with the god Lugh for whom the fest is named. He is so ancient that representations of him are mostly nonexistent and information is varied and vague but his impression on Irish culture lives on to this day.

He is Lugh’s counterpart, in that Lugh is associated with lighter aspects, Chrom is known as the “dark bent” god of the harvest. He is seen as a shadowy, entity known for association to the color black who was considered evil at times and who comes with a scyth to take the harvest. As a fertility deity, he is the carrier and taker of seed in all its fertile forms carrying it in his “sack” or in some cases upon his back. He is associative to the figure of John Barleycorn in his personification of grain.

Archeologically he is known as the chief idol of Eirin. A megalithic stone was erected to/as him in Ulster, NI. Situated around him/the megalith were twelve smaller idols made of other types of stones/gems while his was made of or covered in gold. To him the early Irish, historians have said, sacrificed their children in return for milk, corn and the good weather that insured the fertility of cattle and crops. The truth of this claim is unclear as revisionist Christian historians may have used this construct to demonized him. Nonetheless, it is surmised, the god was held in awe and perhaps horror for his severe requirements and it was potentially even dangerous to worship him, for the faithful themselves it was believed sometimes perished in the act. His cult was likely introduced by a pre-Christian king names Tigernmus. During a ritual for Chrom one harvest night, Tigernmus and three- fourths of his followers were destroyed.

According to legend, St. Patrick, cursed and destroyed Chrom’s idol by pushing it over with his crosier and then preached to the people against sacrifice. Potentially, through Chrom’s shape-shifting snake association, it is he that is symbolized as being defeated when Patrick drove the serpents from Ireland.

He is evolved from the proto-Celtic god Donn, Chrom is honoured on the last Sunday in July in Ireland on “Domhnach Chrom Dubh” or “Crom Dubh’s Sunday.” The day is marked with the annual pilgrimage upon Croagh Patrick in County Mayo…

erosart:

François Dubeau’s work is a delightful paradox. Combining traditional techniques with the most modern of digital tools, Dubeau explores the simplest form of expression. His artistic exploration is one of simplicity, striving for the elemental. Going back to the most instinctual of basics, Dubeau’s work explores themes and forms that have inhabited humankind’s psyche since the dawn of time.

Echolilia: A Father’s Photographic Conversation with His Autistic Son. Timothy Archibald uses his camera to find an emotional bridge to his son Photographs and text from the book Echolilia: Sometimes I Wonder

My eldest son was born in 2001. He was always a kid who went to the beat of his own drummer. When he was 5, we began making photographs collaboratively as a way to find some common ground and attempt to understand each other. Soon after we began the project, Elijah was diagnosed on the autistic spectrum. Though the diagnosis gave me the words and history to understand my son better, it didn’t take away the mystery and the need to try to find an emotional bridge to him.”Echolilia” is an alternate spelling of a more common term, “echolalia,” used in the autistic community to refer to the habit of verbal repetition and copying that is commonly found in autistic kids’ behavior. I liked the idea of it: photography is a form of copying. Kids are a form of repetition. And looking at my kid with photography allowed me to see myself a new
