“Indifference” is a poetic illustration of the challenges and strengths of the individual versus society. At first glance, all of the distorted white cans seems the same. Like crumpled up pieces of paper, it is impossible for each can to be exactly like its neighbor. The artist points out how quick we are to judge, and how our desire to group and categorize obscures our ability to distinguish and appreciate the subtle differences.
someone left a comment under one of my very old blog posts, noting that ‘life strikes from different sides and shapes a better suitable for life person’. that sounds very alien to me. because it’s about accepting the things as they are, playing by the already defined rules. instead of changing the rules? at least by contributing to the change by not following them? the ‘suitable’, ‘shaped’ ‘for life’ person would behave according to the rules, in order to gain benefits (or avoid troubles). as taught by regime, teacher, whoever. thus i would tell such a person somehow communistic sounding phrase /s like “are you an opportunist?”
i guess i value people who would not behave as it is taught by shaping, by demand, by the environment, which becomes the system. who would not follow the goal of benefits, because there are more important things than those.
and now I’ll tell that I like the color of the wall, the girl in front(i know her! i know her!), and the wires with both of them. (:
