Being in a space that's not a studio, it kind of creates an openness of 'We can do whatever we want here; we're not on the clock.'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
People tend to think that because I need all this time on my own in the studio, that I need time on my own, period. And that's not really true.
The studio is a place where I can experiment before I'm prepared for an idea to become a body of work, or a new way of working, or a way of working that can sustain me over a period of time.
Studio people are idiots. Until they see someone else doing it and make a success of it, they don't open their minds. Most of them are idiots.
Being in the studio is like painting, you know, you can really take your time, and try different things, and kind of go deep into it.
When I'm in the studio, there are no boundaries.
I hate studios. A studio is a black hole. I never use a studio to work. It's very artificial to go to a studio to get new ideas. You have to get new ideas from life, not from the studio. Then you go to the studio to realize the idea.
If you want a studio to back you, you want to be doing something that's been done to death!
Studio people are bright. Empowering. They don't want to have to interfere creatively. That's their horror story, too.
When you're not in studios, you don't have any luxuries; you can't control the elements, so you have to put up with those extremes.
When I'm not on set, I'm in the studio.
