CREATIVE LOBOTOMY

Historically, a lobotomy is a cut that switches something off. It severs a connection, flattens, makes a person more manageable, less troublesome. It corrects what has been judged deviant.

Mine is the opposite: a cut that urges deviation.

I cut through the rigid patterns with which we look at things, the formae mentis we carry without ever asking whether they truly belong to us. Not to replace them. To open the space in which we can think for ourselves again.

Divertere, in Latin, means precisely this: to deviate, to change direction. Not empty entertainment, but a creativity that diverts—moving you sideways while you thought you were standing still. A small confusion, a displacement that lets other paths come into view. None of them has to be followed. It is enough that they exist.
