21.03.2024 The world around us seems so volatile. Might a gentle, silent, gradual explosion be possible to achieve? Can one make it through the present without violence?
We come from a clay, tectonic past, but what if the future were spongy? A place where the forms around us aren’t threatening but instead embrace care and leisure. It might be that if we were to coexist with a new kind of form and color, our emotions would adopt new paths of sensuality. How do these forms affect our subjectivities? Perhaps that is precisely what plunging into this abstract fantasy means.
