This isn't a nihilist slogan! On the contrary, it's a hymn to positive thinking.
We must be careful not to be led astray by the weak thinking of that recent trend called New Age, the "Ö.overwhelming desire to discover rituals in order to feel in harmony with mystery" (Tom Robbins).
15 years ago by now, Alessandro Mendini spoke of the widened concept of clothing, intended as a garment, a home, a town. It was a path through concentric circles that extended outwards from the man that acted as the hub. Perhaps there has been a dispersion of forces (ideas, objects, consumerism) in this process and today this tendency has been inverted, returning to the centre. The home is the new accumulator of energy, from where we can decide to make excursions, incursions, or intrusions, toward the outside. |
