François Xavier Saint Georges’s latest project: No You Wont (The worst is yet to come)
“No You Wont is part of visual experimentation using Nichrome wire. Plaster, paper, prints and power, i created this series of 12 descriptive burning taglines. As long as you think you can do something, a burning reminder blows your dream off.
This specific wire is powered using 120v and burn through a series of printed taglines.”many thanks to the artist for submitting their work

The oxford dictionary defines happiness as merely ‘the state of being happy’. However, interestingly enough the first example they give is an explanation of someone struggling to actually be happy. As I have stated in my piece you don’t have to constantly be happy, feeling like you are falling apart and that your life is a mess is all normal. The journey might be hard but in the end you will get back to happiness, assuming you were ever happy in the first place. I believe this piece represents a more modern, less clichéd example of happiness…. That happiness, and in fact unhappiness, is inevitable. You will fall apart and put yourself back together and surprisingly enough, it is this that makes happiness so great.
