Listen In Black Cursive
"Know how to listen, and you will profit even from those who talk badly."
- Plutarch, born circa 46 in Chaeronea, Boeotia, Hellenistic Greece (on the land of present-day Greece)
Listen In Black Cursiveis an exercise in attention. Nearly concealed within its surroundings, the word asks the viewer to slow down, look closer, and engage with intention. It reflects KMTWF’s belief that listening is not passive — it is an active, disciplined choice that precedes wisdom, trust, and meaningful action.
In a world shaped by constant noise, this piece elevates restraint as strength. To listen is to value perspectives beyond one’s own, to learn before leading, and to move the world forward with clarity rather than haste. The work affirms that progress begins when we truly hear what matters.
