How does the shown object point to a better world?
The objects are the two sunflowers, which do not stand alone, but were planted together by me and my son at the beginning of the lockdown and are now in full bloom. They are still growing, are watered daily and need not much more than earth, sun and water. Sometimes it takes little to achieve effects. And it can be done cooperatively. And no unique things need to be achieved, built or designed. Depending on the environmental influences, things develop a life of their own in order to grow and flourish. When we are thrown back on ourselves and the external life and stimuli are reduced, things still develop, grow and flourish and change productively. Life is change.
This is how I imagine a better world:
I would like to see a world free of competition, where everyone, regardless of their external characteristics, can meet each other, get into conversation and have a good time together and also rub against each other. Material needs are taken care of and no one has to worry about existential concerns, but can be active according to needs. The compulsions are not so strong, because I think that breaking up old compulsions almost inevitably produces new, different compulsions. People can love whoever they want, as long as they do not damage themselves. As a way of government, democratic principles have prevailed and participatory opportunities have expanded, and borders are a thing of the past. There is delicious food and drink and good coffee. Coffee is prepared in many different ways and is not too stimulating. Moreover, smoking is no longer unhealthy and no longer smells, but is now only a pleasure. It is mostly 25 degrees and there are many bathing possibilities. The meadows are fragrant and you can do somersaults on them or rest or have a nice chat. The animals are also doing well. They are no longer kept as farm animals, but live together with the people and give what they can and want to give. The new world is cooperative, friendly and sensual.
