“What art does — maybe what it does most completely — is tell us, make us feel that what we think we know, we don’t. There are whole worlds around us that we’ve never glimpsed.” Greil Marcus — Wednesday August 31st — —

I love listening. It is one of the only spaces where you can be still and moved at the same time. — Nayyirah Waheed — Wednesday August 31st — —

The idea is to die young as late as possible. — Ashley Montagu — Wednesday August 31st — —

Human Genome Project

Swiss artist Valentina De’ Mathà just finished this amazing work of art, the Human Genome Project. Intrigued by the fact that all races are equal to 99.99% she started to collect the hair of all ethnicities from all over the world, with ads on the major social networks like Facebook. Then she twisted and felted the hair with sheep’s wool into these pieces of fur-looking fabrics as a huge DNA fault of all ethnic groups around the world.
An absurd, obscure but beautiful work of art that has not been exhibited yet, but I hope it will, somewhere soon!
