DADA art is a wonderful period in art history. I feel that this revolutionary period has made it possible for me not to clean my kitchen for a week and consider my living space a venue of cutting edge instillations. If my house was in a Better Home and Garden catiloge it would have to be labeled as in the style of DADA.
I have always liked my home to look lived in. I leave dishes out for days and half the bed is on the floor along side the better part of my closet. I think that when everything is all neatly tucked away and so fresh and so clean, that my home loses my true essence. When I walk into my home I want to smell warm flesh and day old chine’s food, not a chemically manufactured aroma made to trick our brains in to thinking that our home is in a lavender forest or lemon. One can not live inside of a lemon.
Some may think that I have clutter, but I think it is a different texture of living than most people are use too. I think that this texture of living that I inhabit is personal and can represent my inner most being. My walls, floors, dishes, and sheets reflect what I have done and who I am. Is this not the same idea that all of the home journals try to persuade us of, that our home is a place of self expression. If our home is a place of self expression, than there is no wrong way to express oneself.
