“Upadhaya, the choice is made, I thirst for Wisdom. Now hast thou rent the veil before the secret Path and taught the greater Yana. Thy servant here is ready for thy guidance.”
– H.P. Blavatsky, The Voice of the Silence
Son of Mr. Green Genes is the gallery space as ordination hall. Values, desires, and preferences become regurgitated, impressed in individuals by competing spheres of ideology. The Subject is born, not all at once, but through processes of acceptance, rejection, and sometimes by the rituals of “going forth.” With this, cultural investigation converts from individualist self-awareness to a search for the lineages of doctrine and interpellation.
