Project 1: Desire and Aversion



Aversion to clutter

Broken and morphing drawing tools litter the surface. They block the human below from breaking through the surface to breathe. The squiggles and networks of lines are anxious thoughts that struggle to filter through ideas and to connect important ones. Heavy billows of hair sway aimlessly: this is a moment of surrender, complacent suffocation. Thinking, and just living in general, is so much effort. It is so much nicer to just do nothing and watch everything float by. This is a trap of the overdramatic mind. There is really nothing to stress about, but every little difficulty mounts to paralyzing panic.  Despondency sets in and, until enough anger or hope is gathered, the mind and body slumps about in ridiculously irrational and annoying complaint. Anger seems to be the most effective inspiration, when it is violent enough to break through the self. The anger must be stronger than the comfort of complacency, however. In the guise of exceptional insight into the nonsensicalness of life, apathy is a most comfortably self-righteous occupation.
