The Gallery Reboots (While My Developer Has Tea)
Posted: Saturday, June 7, 2025 | 8:06 PM AEST
We now interrupt our regularly scheduled cultural insurgency to bring you a quick domestic broadcast from the back-end of the fine art page — where, in a heroic act of decluttering, I appear to have deleted not just a few placeholder images, but the actual header background itself.
Yes, that header.
The one that holds everything together like a calm curator in a room full of screaming paintings.
Currently, the page sits somewhere between fine and feral — images uploading, frames realigning, meaning trembling on the edge of CSS.
My developer (bless him), five hours behind in Pakistan, is presumably mid-tea or mid-syntax. Either way, he is unaware of the visual entropy gently blooming on my screen.
Status Update:
- Blank images: purged.
- Artworks: re-uploaded.
- Header: missing in action, presumed corrupted by hubris.
- Me: practicing patience disguised as productivity.
To All Visitors (and Future Cultural Historians):
If the gallery looks like a ghost town with talent, you’re not wrong.
But you are, by virtue of reading this, part of the rebuild.
This is not a bug. It’s a brushstroke.
More soon. The blink continues.
