Art & Psy

Graffiti has two deaths: whitewashing, which erases the mark, and municipal recovery, which cuts the breath. The official mural turns urgency into function, desire into décor. Bruegel showed it already: some bodies dissolve, others are reused as heralds. So it is with the recruited writer—he announces but no longer desires. When breath fogs the glass, it has already crossed to the dead.
