Artists working for other artists is all about knowing, learning, unlearning, initiating long-term artistic dialogues, making connections, creating covens, and getting temporary shelter from the storm.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
What an artist is trying to do for people is bring them closer to something, because of course art is about sharing. You wouldn't be an artist unless you wanted to share an experience, a thought.
Artists are the people that no matter what, pick up the pen, pick up a paintbrush. They take the time to translate what is happening to create something that resonates deeply with the rest of the people that are caught in the middle of their own reality.
So much of what we do as artists is a combination of personal experience and imagination, and how that all creeps into your work is not so linear.
There's a power in what we hold as artists, and part of that comes with responsibility... to share the human experience and really allow that to be seen.
Artists need some kind of stimulating experience a lot of times, which crystallizes when you sing about it or paint it or sculpt it. You literally mold the experience the way you want. It's therapy.
You get to a point where you really can't manage more artists, because representing artists takes a lot of time.
A lot of artists are much more concerned about how their work is used and how it's disseminated. That, to artists, is as important as the money, for some people.
Any artist that's involved in their work is inevitably going to have a focus in what they do.
An artist or a creative person of any kind goes about their work because it's their path, it's what excites them, it's what aligns their soul with who they truly are, who they showed up to be.
I think the job of artists is to stir things up.
