DRKLUX
THIRST OF THE OTHER 2024–2025. THIS IS NOT A PATH AND NOT A CYCLE. RATHER — A CLOSED SCHEME, WHERE MOVEMENT DOES NOT BRING YOU CLOSER TO AN EXIT. A LABYRINTH WITHOUT A CENTER, WITHOUT EDGES, WITHOUT PROMISES. THE ACCENTS ARE SET SO THAT, ONCE INSIDE, YOU DO NOT CHOOSE. THE CHOICE WAS ALREADY MADE — AT THE MOMENT WHEN REALITY STOPPED RESPONDING TO FEELINGS. THERE IS NO CATHARSIS HERE. THE DARK TEXTURE OF WHAT IS HAPPENING DOES NOT LET GO AND DOES NOT TRY TO BE FRIGHTENING. IT SIMPLY REMAINS. CROSSING THE LINE, YOU ACCEPT UNSPOKEN RULES: GIVING INSTEAD OF RETURN, DESTRUCTION AS A FORM OF INTERACTION. THIS IS NOT A GESTURE AND NOT A PROTEST. THIS IS CONSENT TO ERASE EVERYTHING YOU CAN REACH.
