Even in making objects, as soon as you start to get the feeling that some form of craft is coming into place, you realize that everything is wrong. Because craft is really just a fetish. It is wasted energy. It's about the object, some space which has nothing to do with the human.

American Artist

Hari Nef

I don't want to say that women who do use makeup or get breast implants or have fake nails are insecure. They're entitled to that, and they should do that if that's what they want to do. But for me, there are no answers. It's just a matter of preference and choice and fetish.

Casual Usage

Not Always Sexual

Recognize that fetishes have cultural significance and can be sacred in certain societies.

Cultural Sensitivity

Religious fetishes aren't just objects; they hold deep spiritual meaning for believers.

Not Just Trinkets

Sexual fetishes can be private and sensitive topics, so use discretion when discussing them.

Taboo Topics

In psychology, 'fetish' is a clinical term and should be used with understanding of its medical implications.

Clinical Term

Boundary of Norms

 Historically speaking, the public appreciation of visual art in terms other than traditional, religious or social function is a relatively new concept. Today, we fetishize the fetish, so to speak.
