Post Futurism


“Construction is the arrangement of elements.
The future is not going to build monasteries for priests, or for the prophets and clowns of art.
Down with art as a glittering extravagance in the senseless lives of the wealthy!
One has to work for life, not for palaces, churches, cemeteries and museums.”


I found this in a college sketchbook. It was during my ‘Futurist’ phase (lasted about 1 year).

I wish I was as insistent now, but less unoriginal.

Having taken different paths/avenues in my life I feel essentially the same way these past few days.
Maybe it's the weather...

Ditto. I think it's the change of seasons.

This time of year always reminds me of starting college, and also my first month in South Korea, completly confused and hungry, plus a few things best kept secret. It's a great time of year to feel.
