COVER VARNISH:
In my role for Beautiful/Decay Book 6: Future Perfect, I spearheaded the curation
of artwork from over 100 artists, each envisioning a better tomorrow through their
creative expressions. Tasked with selecting pieces that captured the essence of
a perfect future, I helphed facilitate a contest sponsored by Toyota to feature a
winning artist's work in the book. I delved into the concept of envisioning a
harmonious future, drawing inspiration from Plato's philosophies on simplicity
and ideal forms. Embracing the notion that the future lies in simplicity and
harmony, I incorporated imagery centered around platonic solids, symbolic of
perfect geometric forms that represent the fundamental building blocks of the
universe and the possibilities of a brighter future.
