live now on youtube! ▶️ ephraim’s love politics sharing my process and world sense on art and humanity with zero filter. 💌

year of the artist: time and intuition 🕰️💌

when people say art is life, i understand that to mean that art is meant to be lived through. and in that vein, this piece has been in the works for almost a year. it comes from being determined to really sit and ponder over my ideals, question them, critique them, discover new ones and most importantly, live out those ideals to test their durability in real life. what the people need more than anything are philosophies that actually add value to their everyday.

deconstructing the colonial and imperial view of time,and relearning about indigenous ways of living like presence and intuition have been two crucial philosophies of my everyday life since.
i see them as both influential to my practice, but also imperative for revolution and everyday acts of resistance.

today, i share another time capsule of the revolution’s prelude from my perspective. i do this to archive the revolution before and as it occurs. there are definitely other workers doing their part too, but this, is simply mine.

i know you’ll enjoy this one.

yours forever and now,
the lover. 💌

i have no doubt i am among those who will define the coming age. 💌

@lovep0litics will be amongst those defining the coming age. it’s a manifesto of love as a radical resistance for our generation and beyond.

to us, love is way more than just “a doing word”.

love is the beginning of questions and answers for internal revolution. this internal revolution of unwavering love for ourselves leads to us having the capacity to unwaveringly love each other.

THAT is community. a willing, transformative love that recognises others because it recognises itself. and THAT is what we’re rediscovering. a love that’s always been there because it’s innate in us all as humans. we’re not the first to have spoken of such a love, we’re just continuing the thread of generations before us.

this is simply humanity rediscovering their humanity again.

with the love of the world and the ancestors,
the lover 💌🌍

the next up. 💌

do you know about the space in between day and night?
the awkward silence that vies between the sun and moon’s
rule of the sky?
how about when waters are neither tepid or frozen,
when we first struggle to open our eyes and time has no bearing on us?
where between the air of our first breath and speech,
our ancestors, faeries and legends speak
to us and reside.
in a world ruled by black and white,
the grey area is my kaleidoscope.
that’s where you’ll find me,
ready to rule.

with love,
the lover
