Hand made ceramic incense dish from COMMONS Stillness Collection, paired with a surprise Subtle Bodies incense pack!Sacha Josef Raine is a Meanjin (Brisbane) based ceramicist who is influenced by modern architecture and focuses on conceptual curiosity to create functional and sculptural objects that offer a sense of calm and quiet confidence. The tones of her work are inspired by the Australian landscape and coupled with neutral glazes that preserve and celebrate the natural colour of the clay. Subtle Bodies are Australian based incense artisans, who craft Japanese-style incense sticks using only two ingredients; the fragrant wood their name suggests and a natural binding agent from either Machilus thunbergii (tabu-no-ki tree) or Litsea glutinosa (brown beech tree).
A rare document of the 1960s Black Arts Movement featuring Albert Ayler, Amiri Baraka, Milford Graves, Sun Ra, Cecil Taylor and many more, The Cricket fostered critical and political dialogue for Black musicians and writersEdited by poets and writers Amiri Baraka, A.B. Spellman and Larry Neal between 1968 and 1969, and published by Baraka’s New Jersey–based JIHAD productions around the time of the Newark Riots, this experimental music magazine ran poetry, position papers and gossip alongside concert and record reviews and essays on music and politics. The publication emerged from the heart of a political movement―“a proto-ideology, akin to but younger than the Garveyite movement and the separatism of Elijah Mohammed,” as Spellman writes in the book’s preface―and aimed to reunite advanced art with its community, “to provide Black Music with a powerful historical and critical tool” and to enable avant-garde Black musicians and writers “to finally make a way for themselves.” This publication gathers all issues of the magazine with an introduction by poet and scholar David Grundy.
