When I See A New Artist I

When I See A New Artist I Give Myself A Lot Of Time To Reflect And Decide Whether It's Art Or Not.

Art Is Difficult. It's Not Entertainment. There Are Only A Few People Who Can Say Something About Art - It's Very Restricted. When I See A New Artist I Give Myself A Lot Of Time To Reflect And Decide Whether It's Art Or Not. Buying Art Is Not Understanding Art.

I Was Interested In Transcendence From A Very Early Age. I Was Interested In What Was Over There, What Was Behind Life. So When I Had My First Communion I Was Very Disappointed. I Had Expected Something Amazing And Surprising And Spiritual. Instead All I Got Was A Bicycle. That Wasn't What I Was After At All.

I Grew Up In A Forest. It's Like A Room. It's Protected. Like A Cathedral... It Is A Place Between Heaven And Earth.
