Coming from Britain, I was terrified of meeting all these other artists, because artists over there tend to fight with each other a lot, the premise being that there's not enough room for everybody.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I wasn't thinking of competing with any artists as such, I was more thinking of being among them, and sharing thoughts with them; like sharing views, ideas, etc.
Everybody is bound by some social rules. But I think that artists need some kind of freedom to explore their minds and that some of them tend to take that freedom to live a little more openly or a little more dangerously, sometimes a lot more self-destructively, than other people.
Well, I worked with lots of different artists, of course.
Artists are like everybody else.
So many artists say they're not aware of audience. For me is unbelievable.
I actually like the collaboration of working with different artists.
Actually, I don't think there's anyone that represents the artists, except the artists themselves.
Because artists can be extremely eccentric and insane, and unfortunately, the people they hurt the most are the people that are closest to them.
Every day you run into artists on the streets in SoHo or other creative people you want to do something with. There's nothing to match that chance encounter.
It's always good when you can bring two artists together who are totally different.
