ORIGINAL SIN: inxs

You might know of the original sin And you might know how to play with fire But did you know of the murder committed In the name of love? Dream on white boy Dream on black girl And wake up to a brand new day To find your dreams have washed away There was a time when I did not care And there was a time when the facts did stare There is a dream and it’s held by many Well I’m sure you had to see It’s open arms Dream on black boy Dream on white girl And wake up to a brand new day To find your dreams have washed away

TACTICS IN TEXTILE: The Art of Yinka Shonibare

"The fabrics are not really authentically African the way people think. They prove to have a crossbred cultural background quite of their own. And it’s the fallacy of that signification that I like. It’s the way I view culture — it’s an artificial construct." ~ Yinka
