The War On Beauty
Architecture, interiors, exteriors, public spaces, vehicles, clothing style all the way to food is not what it once was. Many do not recognize the lack of detail, color, design, embellishments and varied elements as missing. Most don't know the difference. Most may see beauty amoungst what is now a normal standard. Most don't feel deprived from deeper and more creative esthetics but all have been living at a lower frequency by the void that craft, artistry, reverence and detailed beauty has left us in. Uglification, a phrase coined by Jason Christoff and a book by the same by Sylvana Seymour, examines how the grey the drab and the ugly has replaced what once was attention to detail in everything down to door knobs. It is a fascinating concept that uglification has been slow dripped into societies under the guises of functionality, cost cutting, convenience and leveling playing fields but is it true? Could it be that our environments devoid of beauty creates mind numbing, lowered standards and lowered frequencies to make societies more manageable? Join the Two Broads on what we think is a serious consideration for observation.
