JULIUS CVESAR

Dear 14y/o Julz. @stmntgrooming

“Somewhere Between The Absolute and The Absent.“ somewhere between the absolute and the absent. you’ll find existence. the color black speaks on my behalf, and the color white reminds me of what’s missing. black is the absolute. full. heavy. unapologetically everything, all at once. it consumes. the good, the bad, the ugly. white is the absence. a void, a silence. sometimes peace. sometimes pain. but it’s in the contrast that we find truth. as an artist, a man, a human— i am constantly living in the tension between. between the pressure to show up fully, and the pull to disappear. between responsibility and rebellion. between creation and collapse. i present my work in black and white. to protect what’s mine. to keep my full-color reality sacred. to remind you: you’re not seeing everything. you’re seeing what i’ve chosen to give. black becomes boundary. black becomes my subject, my muse, my statement. and so here i am— somewhere in the middle. somewhere in-progress. between the chaos and the calm. thats life. it’s forever a work in progress. a case study of being. somewhere between the absolute …and the absent. sincerely,madman. @sincerelymadman for @stmntgrooming DP @draymillz Edit/SoundDesign/VFX @aaronseiha PA @lucasglizardo
