Do not engage the agents of the enemy

it is enough to know they exist

The art world says that art should either "expand the canon" or "push the edge of innovation"

but neither of these is the core purpose of art imho

Ordinary people love art because it opens the mind and nourishes the soul

For an artist, that's much a harder task

[apocalypse @AP0CALYPSE]

More energy
More creating
More collecting
More love
Less gossip
Less extraction
Less tribalism
Less ego

new rule for self:

no more negative thoughts or talk about other people, ever. It divides me internally & weakens my soul

and I need my strength for what I'm about to do

judge the deed, not the person

ok back to work 🙏🌹🌞

My cabal left to right made the @thelinegallery possible… and they chose themselves

@AP0CALYPSE for mentoring and saying the same thing repeatedly until I listen
@DomBakerArtist showing up for Aotearoa artists at exhibitions she organises with @Jeni_Pepen
@carlos28355 for constant retweeting no matter how bad or good the art
@firstladynft for early belief in the pivot from tech to art
@mysterian for collecting my first digital editions
@ArtWard3n for supporting the XLIFE collection that helped hone my digital craft and acquiring a Burden painting
@Burnasso for early support of the Omtagon project and acquiring a Burden painting
@JonnyPickles for acquiring a Burden painting and being an all round good dude in the chat
@DKiblerEspresso for placing his selected Burden front and center in their lounge
@dsoeirosanches for acquiring a second painting, and the first to ship from The Line gallery
@MadaCollects for acquiring one of the rawest Burdens…
@blocknoob_ for his belief in what we are all doing in crypto
@OMdegen for the light hearted laughs

There are of course more… but you guys were the ones that gave support at the moment when I was deciding whether to open a gallery and studio.

Patronage that launched far more than you realise… that will eventually pay back your belief many times over…

Name three cryptoartists from NZ….

That’s the spot we aim for now.

my only message for this beloved community this morning is:

LOVE

love is the response to personal attacks, to rumors, to accusations, to cabals or non-cabals, & to every ignoble thought or feeling that flits through our flawed souls

Anything less is beneath each one of us, & though we inevitably fail, there are increasingly real consequences to letting ourselves spin into chaos with blame, gossip, accusations, & scapegoating.

We need to stop it, y'all. Take the higher road. Take it all up a notch. Check your shadow, your grief, your personal grievances. Find the spirit in you that resists all of that & which knows better.

That love within you: bring it.

This is the standard to which I for one am holding us.

Here's my guess as to what this is all about, and how to resolve it. https://t.co/dYNLNa8HZz

[apocalypse @AP0CALYPSE]

stay positive
be kind
filter the noise
lean into the real work
& do what you're here to do

LFG

BATTLEFRONT

The "Vertical War" is a spiritual battle within humanity at every scale, from the individual to the nation

It's a fight between projecting chaos outward (as violence) or transforming it (as art)

the thing about a self-taught artist is that the visual language is all his own, & it's cool to see it develop

i've been happy to help Mintface here & there on DMs & calls, suggesting different ways of thinking about making & seeing art

y'all give him some support 🔥🔥

[apocalypse @AP0CALYPSE]

Art is a path. It meanders; it surprises. It conflicts & resolves. Every step reveals the next. It leads to some ultimate, then another, then another.

You can find your way through art, whether as a maker or a collector. It always reflects life.
