DRAMATIC WE ARE ANGRIER, MORE FEARFUL AND CONFUSED
T U R N OF EVE N T S STORY BY ALFONSO DE HOYOS-ACOSTA PRODUCED BY CARLOS PARDO PHOTOGRAPHED BY NATASHA TABUNOVA
Emotions drive us to think, live and dress in an almost tribal fashion. Welcome to our new survivalism-induced mindset that’s draped in apocalyptic chic. Mugatu’s “Derelicte” aesthetic has never been more prophetic. As our society leaves and reenters the shadows of the pandemic, our leaders in political, spiritual, and economic matters all cry out to be heard as they argue and coerce us in a crazed circle of confusion. These days as I try not get unnerved by all the divergent opinions and demands, I maintain a chaotic balance between an irrational optimism and my ungovernable bouts of sardonic irony. Basically, I have a big mouth with a mocking sense of humor, but I try to hide any negativity by smiling a lot. It almost works.
