Where does anything begin?
Before the image, there is the gesture. Before the gesture, there is the gaze. Issue 14 goes back that far — to the quarries of Carrara where a sculptor chooses his marble by smell, to the streets of South Central Los Angeles where Lauren Halsey just opened a sculpture park for her neighborhood, free, forever. To the rituals of young kabuki performers in Japan.
To the question of whether the algorithm has quietly replaced our origins with someone else's.
Twenty-one fashion stories. Eleven texts. Five languages.
One obsession: going back far enough to understand what made things possible.
