Musician Lucy Dacus discusses the complexities of celebrating Woodstock today from the perspective of a millenial, highlighting how the then-subversive messages of love and peace have since become consumable clichés.The image reflects 60s-inspired psychadelic typography, vibrant colors, flow-y movement, and distorsion that gradually blows up the scene completely.
