Speculative Artistic Signature


What if I were an artist? What would I create? How would I want to be recognized and remembered? I like the idea of Haute Cuisine’s chefs always needing to innovate themselves while keeping their signature recognizable. What is my signature? How would you recognize something I’ve created?

If it is something emerging from the creation practice I should be able to identify it myself. That would be the bottom-up part. What is my top-down, intention, desire, in my signature?

When you look at something I created I want you to recognize:

  • Beauty, elegance
  • Intelligence, wisdom
  • Timelessness, Long-term thinking
  • Meaningfulness, usefulness
  • Uniqueness, identity

It would be interesting, now, to understand how to pursue those values.
