The moment you think you understand a great work of art, it's dead for you.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Death is an art, you know.
A strong work of art really leaves people speechless. They feel a little angry because they don't understand it.
Artists today think of everything they do as a work of art. It is important to forget about what you are doing - then a work of art may happen.
I think there is a hunger for things that wake you up, something that makes you peel back your eyes, that reminds you that you are alive. Art is at its best when it is in the 'now.'
Art is about profundity. It's about connecting to everything that it means to be alive, but you have to act.
The more you think, the more you ruin things. Art has to come viscerally; otherwise, forget it.
Whether art is defined as a representation of or response to reality, it demands an intense engagement with things we haven't managed to understand fully.
Art has been good for my soul. And it's been good for my brain. I think I'm a better painter now than I was a musician growing up. You struggle to see things and translate an image through your hands to a canvas.
The sadness of the incomplete, the sadness that is often Life, but should never be Art.
The thing about art for me is that you can go on theorising your work forever, because it's open to interpretation.
