DAVID UNSTONED
The Poetic, The Heroic, and The Vulgar
LIFE IS A SELF PORTRAIT
by David James Francis Xavier Lavin
I'm a New Jersey born Artist trying to recreate the hope Pandora trapped in her box.
To be an artist is to wield the power of creation and destruction responsibly; to dive into the abyss and bring back stories from the vast nothing. Being an artist is to shepherd life towards hope; To steer an inexplicable existence towards purpose. As small as we are, as cosmically meaningless as we may be, life is worth it, for the bits of beauty and poetry I've witnessed. Purpose is something we choose for ourselves. Free will is something we Claim. the Soul, something we
surrender to.
I'm only human, but I find power in that I have the ability to define my humanity however I'd like, by the small choices in the little moments. I am David, and it took me a while to believe I was a story worth living. This is my story, of a lost boy, who became a Wandering Man. I hope to empower you to chase life, 'cause it ain't gonna slow down for you, but you will get faster. Let this site be an escape from the inflexible role we play in the structure of society, as creating continues to be for me.
Nihilistic pessimism is conquered with a light heart, that remembers the inexplicable joy and bliss of belly laughing to a well timed toot. Have a bit of fun, its just life.
