We have observed the world around us and placed our mammal genus as sovereign. Due to communication, we have evolved into a society that permits counterproductive disagreements and wide-scale implications of the judgment and dangerous behaviors of nonchalance. Opinion in our society is currently at an active standstill; we’ve developed it into a mode of communication that connects us yet simultaneously generates non-comprehension and distance between us.
Communication should be a “power” that connects us to one another and generates progress and social change. For the betterment of future generations, should we not strive to utilize our languages to communicate a welcomed reverence for ideas and respond with a language that does not generate brutality, mass indifference, and malevolence?
Witness to Counterpoise was a part of the exhibition Do You Know We are Ruled? at the CEPA Gallery from May 10th - June 10th, 2014
