Hundertwasser - THE SECOND SKIN

By A Mystery Man Writer

THE SECOND SKIN A free man wears free clothes. If the second skin of man, his clothes, is uniformed, made by soulless machines or dictated by fashion, it will be like a false skin, like a foreign body. It will not fit the individual and man will get sick, just as if something was wrong with his first, his real skin. It is a long-term and wicked sickness of our civilisation which manifests itself in a general bad feeling of each individual, a summing up to a damage to self-respect and enslavement of the soul with all the disastrous consequences to our society. Therefore, the right to each man to his individual looks and outsides and his right to create and wear individual clothes must not be violated.
