Dualism
PRESENTED BY MESH COLLECTIVE AND Y STUDIOS
A Perspective on Dualism: An Enhanced Perception of Self, Sense and Sensibility in the Material World. Dualism is harmony in oppositions. Our relationship with the natural and manufactured world encompasses opposing and complementary forces. It is complex, conflicting and yet harmonious and symbiotic. Dualism represents a new flexibility in thinking and communicating about the fundamental aspects of life. We presented a perspective on key macro movements, cultural signals and aesthetic expressions inspired by Dualism.
