I like connecting with people, and that's what good art is: a point of connection. There's nothing better, on stage or on film.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I make art primarily for myself and to show my friends, so I guess it's important to make art that they can connect to.
As an artist, it feels good that we've created something that is connecting with the audience, which is what we always strive to do.
When I make art, I think about its ability to connect with others, to bring them into the process.
It's good for art to make us think, to give us a shared experience that creates a dialogue, makes us talk to each other, including strangers.
What art does is it makes you feel alive and makes you feel like you're connected.
You know, it's recently come into focus for me why I want to be an actor: It's because of the connection I feel to people.
For me, art is always a kind of theater.
We try to connect with the audience as much as we can. We feel the energy from the audience, and it gives us so much joy and inspiration.
The great thing about doing art shows is you get to meet the people who are interested in your art, and I think that when you're purchasing a piece of art it's a tremendous bonus to get to meet the artist because you get a chance to pick their brain a bit and find out first hand what the piece is about for the artist.
Art, in the first place, has to connect with yourself.
