Crossing the line


Lines are the most elemental variable of form. The true aesthetic genius behind the practice is balancing the economy of line to perfectly represent form without the unnecessary weight of unneeded value. Society draws a parallel to this artistic methodology by illuminating the minimalistic representation of ourselves to one another, and not crossing the threshold of too much information. Its a subconscious understanding, through minimal communication. It's quite a beautiful concept. Sadly, this quality has an open and pumping wound, inflicted by the era of social media. Why do we feel the need to ejaculate our thoughts and actions upon our acquaintances through hourly updates? Is there a need to continue? If continued, where will the boundaries fall? Guilty and bitching about it...
