The art of persona: Mona Lisa looks through us and passively accepts our admiration as her due.27 Any it-girl will tell you: the “passive” misleads: take what is yours. Glam as response to mortality, a striving beyond: aged nobility, fraying ele- gance, velvet on the cusp of tatters. Transcendence from person to image, esh to marble. The slated-low shooting high, birthing an aristocracy of family all their own. Parallel hierarchy, di erent ontologies of who matters, theories of existence for the social world. Eyes wide shut to outside games & rankings, a theatre of internal performances & a micro-economy of who’s who, classical & lo- , the grand hall dirtied by a cigarette.
