fashion, drawing, sculpture

Fashion: Making the art of drawing and sculpture accessible to everyone.

The alphabet of civilization is art. Long before humans settled and became agrarian, they used drawing and sculpture to create tools, depict their surroundings, and express their imaginations, but not themselves. The cave painting clearly shows the devotion, skill, and mastery involved in starting human civilization.

The reason I believe in this is because we make everything out of images and sculpture. We create our written language, homes, cars, clothing, and cell phones by first drawing and then sculpting. That's why throughout history, whenever and wherever a nation excelled in these two arts, they dominated others. This phenomenon today is valid. China's art market rise is a clear example of this, with numbers and charts showing their growth to second place after the USA in a matter of just 30 years. 

It appears that drawing and sculpture not only create objects for us but also, particularly in human representation, contribute to the psychological development of the person and society. Comparing Middle Eastern societies to European society reveals that, during the Renaissance, human representation became central in Europe after being neglected and uncelebrated during the Dark Ages, with Renaissance Europeans getting ahead and colonizing everybody.

Now that we know the importance of these two arts, what's going to happen if we teach every human the art of drawing and sculpture? 

In modern times, fashion is the new child of drawing and sculpting. These arts advanced not merely aesthetics but also identity, cognition, and social order. Today, this tradition finds its most direct continuation in fashion. Fashion is not simply an industry or a consumer good; it is the applied art of self-sculpture, shaping both individuals and societies. To understand fashion is to understand civilization’s growth, and to ignore it is to overlook one of the most powerful engines of human progress.
