Unless you are the owner of one of those magicams all the cat-owners of the Innernet use to capture gold like this on the reg, you should probably take an extreme interest in Katie’s and my CatCam 1.0, coming to a Regretsy store near you.

Shirin Neshat: Art in Exile

“Culture is a form of resistance. I envy sometimes the artists of the West for their freedom of expression. For the fact that they can distance themselves from the question of politics. From the fact that they are only serving one audience, mainly the Western culture. But also, I worry about the West, because often in this country, in this Western world that we have, culture risks being a form of entertainment. Our people depend on our artists, and culture is beyond communication.” -Shirin Neshat
