Fabrizio Ajello and Nikhil Chopra – A dialogue
Time does not exist. Space does not exist. It’s as if it’s all in our minds. Nothing more than a projection to believe in for reassurance of certain points. The stakes of the giant, delicate tent of our existence. A precarious shelter to adorn with care, so that we can narrate our passage in this life. Traces in the landscape, signs of the landscape within us. The signs, perhaps, not only represent, but they also have the function as nails capable of fixing an unstable perception, a skirmish of vision. The fervent search for lost time confirms the fragility of our steps, our exclusive alignment with an hypothetical identity.

Sexuality in the 21st Century
The Roman Catholic Church put Mary on a pedestal for being a virgin, as if sex was something wrong, something filthy and something to be ashamed of.

CUT & RUN: 25 Years Card Labour
There is an iconic statue in the city centre of Glasgow; it’s officially called the Duke of Wellington but is much better known as “the statue with a traffic cone on its head”. Despite several attempts by the local government to deter this addition, residents of Glasgow have consistently kept a traffic cone atop the statue since the 1980s. It’s something Glaswegians – myself included – are oddly proud of.
l’être, l’autre et l’entre
Through her installations that combine textiles and sculpture composed of both industrial and natural materials, Marie-Claire Messouma Manlanbien creates ecosystems where materials interact and cohabitate.
For her project at the Palais de Tokyo, Messouma Manlanbien proposes to set a series of recent and new works against a large theatre curtain that she previously created for the Beffroi de Montrouge. The use of pre-existing pieces is a recurrent practice in her œuvre, where works are regularly bought into new configurations where forms can borrow from and renew one another, multiplying outwards in an infinite exploration.

The Birth of a Narcissistic Personality Disorder
Inevitably, the highly developed persona was not her true authentic self, but rather her idea of perfection, which did not match what she felt on the inside. This created great incongruence inside of her; she was projecting one thing to the outside world, but feeling completely different on the inside.
The Birth of internet fatigue
First things first; let’s not be total grumpy cats and appreciate that this is pretty much fucking magic. I can be anywhere and whizz a photo of the cupcake I’m about to devour to anyone I please for 0.2 seconds of my time, all while making plans for tomorrow with 20 people in one chat. In real time. With GIFs. Fucking magic!
Fake news
Our brain is an association machine, constantly looking for patterns and meaning to make sense of the world. And one of the mental strategies we rely on when passing judgement is to look at our existing library of knowledge. When this knowledge is not there, our brain might consider the source’s credibility to decide whether or not the story should be believed.
Thoughts after Pastis
Upon touching my lips, I knew something special was happening. I wasn’t recovering from this. This was no crush. No puppy love. This was a full-blown, long-term commitment. Lustful and loving all at the same time.
Peaches And Punanis: Why It Was Never Just About Bananas and Babies
But sexual pleasure doesn’t just happen with a partner. Fondling and vibrators shouldn’t be a novelty for not just single women, but to all women in whatever relationship. How can we expect pleasure from other partners if we are unaware as to what stimulates our bodies? Well, pull that sleeve up, and sing the song to that 50s poster – Yes You Can know your body better with every passing day.

Structure, but not too much
Our brain has two modes, a very structured mode, and a very chaotic mode. A lot of people think that chaos makes them creative but this is not actually true. The sweet spot is somewhere between the structured and the chaotic, which he calls “structured chaos.”
