Faux Zen - issue 4
Its very easy to say something, its quite easy to do something, its even easier to want something, but what sets apart basic expressions from real statements of intent? With creative output becoming increasingly homogenised there is a new middle ground where desire is the justification and in many cases the start and end of the cause. So faced with the onslaught of easy gestures we longed for the Zealots vigour and belief in direction, enlightenment perhaps not but a search for our own “Faux Zen”.

Right next to us, like a 2nd skin, it remains slightly elusive.
