Amy Guidry’s In Our Veins art series
Born in North Carolina, Amy Guidry is an artist now residing in Louisiana. Guidry has exhibited in galleries and museums nationwide including the Visual Arts Center of New Jersey and the Schepis Museum. Her series, In Our Veins, explores the connections between all life forms and the cycle of life.
Through a psychological and sometimes visceral approach, this series investigates our relationships to each other and to the natural world, as well as our role in the life cycle. Concepts such as life and death, survival and exploitation, and the interdependence and destruction of living and nonliving organisms are illustrated throughout. Using imagery derived from dreams and free association, In Our Veins demonstrates these ideas in a surreal, psychologically-charged narrative.

A broken snare drum rolling gently over a scratchy acoustic guitar; a deep lyrical catharsis smothering a melody which is predictable but endearing. Your Rocky Spine by Great Lake Swimmers is a magical song; all wrapped up in three and half minutes of lustful introspection.
Threads or Dead is a new Australian-based online clothing store, based in Perth, and selling streetwear and contemporary fashion for both guys and girls. Says site founder Justin Greenwood: ‘As well as stocking some of the more well known brands, we also import a lot of labels exclusively from America, and produce a small range of our own clothing. We want to sell clothing that is unique and often has a story behind it. We don’t want to sell clothing that is available in your average High Street store’. Read more
