Slow-food, slow-fashion. Slow. Slow. The re-localization from globalization. Slow connects us to a local community.

commu.

It's this thing about communicating, and knowing what people want and working with them rather than just going off on our own tangential interests as though they were the only thing of importance, the end all and be all of the universe. Audience. We need to come back to a personal audience. To having personal connections to the public through art. Commissioned work just seems like such a necessary thing for this reason. You have to keep the communication open, which means that neither side dominates or asserts complete authority or superiority. Not that we should only make commissioned work, but what else is to tie us personally to the people whom we affect? How else are we to understand them better as well as ourselves, or even perhaps the most important thing, in relation to ourselves?
