You know something is a trend when its synergy begins to creep into your daily conscious. I am not sure why or how, but I sense a sea change in our cultural atmosphere: a slow shifting of the tides. It was apparent at the Paris shows and reinforced again last week at CURVENY. There is always a broad sweep of interesting ideas, but I like to zero in. Nothing spoke louder to me … Read More
