This is the playbook, folks.
If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.
Do not be quiet in this moment.

Whether or not we share Hilma af Klint’s belief system, her “Nature Studies” series maps a route to a higher plane of being. It may be that they illuminate some semblance of utopianism that’s still available to humankind, a quality as elusive as the world of the soul.
When Hilma af Klint Found the Soul in Plants
Her Nature Studies invoke the promise of something greater, a direct line from the material world to the spiritual experience that art is presumed to offer.
