Uppercase #66
Making art is a cathartic expression of control in a chaotic world.
Decoration and ornamentation improve our lives, infusing personality and humanity into all things. We can express our values, opinions and identities by adorning ourselves with jewellery, pattern and design we’ve made ourselves or selected from fellow artisans.
Adornment doesn’t have to be an afterthought, nor is it superficial. It can be a purpose unto itself—a practice to encourage others to appreciate beauty and perhaps explore the neglected parts of themselves that need nurturing and expression.
