Theory making art that stretches

2024-01-01 18:40:02.927425+01 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Theory: making art that stretches humanity, rather than reinforcing the existing culture, by reusing the symbols that are deeply embedded in that culture, is not likely to be made easier if repurposing old versions of icons is suddenly legal.

In fact it feels likely that mostly this will serve to re-entrench the mores and valued of the entrenched forces.
