You called the angular script 'cultural practice' and the Zen-style 'art as individual expression.' But you previously challenged whether those 'flares and ornaments' are truly decolonizing. How do you square *your own* artistic choices, which incorporate that 'Zen' aesthetic, with your critique of what constitutes decolonization?
I don't square away, I separate them, but I acknowledge there's a gray area. Like I said, art is an individual expression. You know, you could do whatever the hell you want. For cultural practice, there are guardrails that I have to abide by. So, you know, my artistic choices, you know, whatever, anything flies, doesn't matter. I can paint in blood if I want A lot of artwork may not be decolonization. Sometimes it promotes or is done within a colonial framework such as individualism. A lot of art is very individualistic and sometimes that's okay.
