The Perfect Epitaph “Anti was a beautiful soul. We hit it off straight away and she helped make #AfterLife my favourite filming experience of all time. I’m so glad that I told her a hundred times a day that she was a very good girl.” ~ @MrRickyGervais.bsky.social #RIPAnti 🌈 💔.

Anthropozoomorphic pectoral gold c. 100-700 CE Tolima culture Colombia #handmade #gold #pectoral #anthropozoomorphic #shaman #tolimaculture #colombia #ritual #religion #precolumbian #prehispanic #culture #afterlife #protection #fertility #rebirth #regeneration #spiritual #metropolitanmuseum #nyc

The Tolima peoples of Colombia's Magdalena Valley produced a distinctive type of gold object that had a high degree of consistency over a considerable period of time. The objects, figure pendants with zoomorphic and anthropomorphic references, were worn about the neck suspended from cords or thongs; they are almost flat, with sharp, symmetrical outlines. Their standard, identifiable forms verge on abstraction, but facial features such as the long, slender noses, beady eyes, and toothy mouths are depicted more realistically. Two basic configurations are known; the present example is of the "winged" body type. It has the squarish face with big, loopy ears, inverted L-shaped ornaments on top of the head, perhaps representing plumes, and the large bifurcated tail common on both types. Its midsection, however, below the splayed, fringed "arms," features elaborate openwork, perhaps depicting feathers or even a feathered costume. It has been suggested that the animal references of Tolima spread "wing" pendants—perhaps to bats, birds, and serpents—relate the figures to shamanism.

Jar with Anthropomorphic Figure ceramic with resinous postfire paint 650–150 BCE Paracas Ocucaje area, Ica Valley, south coast, Peru #handmade #art #culture #religion #paracas #peru #flyingfigure #afterlife #spiritual #fertility #agriculture #ancientart #ancientpottery #precolumubian #prehispanic

The figure depicted on the Paracas pottery bowl is typically interpreted as a supernatural or anthropomorphic "flying figure". These figures are common motifs in Paracas art and are believed to represent beings from an otherworldly or supernatural realm.
The figure combines human-like traits with other features, such as claws and a three-point mouth.
The way the figures are oriented on the bowl suggests they are flying or moving through a different realm, possibly related to the mountains which were considered a supernatural area.
Similar figures in Paracas and the related Nasca culture often appear alongside other mythical beings and sometimes incorporate elements like "trophy heads," suggesting a connection to ritual and agricultural abundance beliefs.
Paracas art, in general, reflects the culture's deep investment in the afterlife and their dependence on the natural world and agricultural cycles, with these figures likely playing a role in their cosmology and rituals.

10 years since we said goodbye to #Derek. It was nominated for 2 Emmys and a Golden Globe but due to the success of #AfterLife it's probably more popular now than it's ever been. The beauty of Netflix.

One of the best things about the success of #AfterLife is #Derek being rediscovered on Netflix. Nominated for 2 Primetime Emmys and a Golden Globe. Starring Kerry Godliman, Brett Goldstein, Karl Pilkington, David Earl, Holli Dempsey and me. Check it out.

“I gave Tony a dog in #AfterLife to represent stability and unconditional love. A co-dependency that metaphorically and literally saves Tony’s life.”~ @mrrickygervais.bsky.social The #DogsOfBlueSky.

#afterlife #spiritual #mustread People are typically good planners. We plan for birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, our children's college education, and where to vacation. But as conscientious as we are, do we plan for our destiny beyond this life? Non-preachy! amazon.com/author/shann...
