“As a culture we are obsessed with the notion of safety. Yet we do not question why we live in states of extreme anxiety and dread. Fear is the primary force upholding structures of domination. It promotes the desire for separation, the desire not to be known. When we are taught that safety lies always with sameness, then difference, of any kind, will appear as a threat. When we choose to love we choose to move against fear—against alienation and separation. The choice to love is a choice to connect—to find ourselves in the other.”

I have nothing to say to anyone anymore except that I hate my stupid disorder because it took everything from me and I am getting worse with each passing year and there’s nothing I can do about it but accept my pain because I’m not even truly miserable - I am simply ambivalent to all of it. Nothing but a lifeless husk

I exist, that is all, and I find it nauseating. Jean-Paul Sartre

artists obsessed and possessed by one single all-consuming theme or image and returning to it over and over until the day they die…. rearranging your entire life into an altar of unflinching devotion for this one thing, the only thing, and through that devotion making it everything….that’s how you touch the universe i think.
