I have a rough idea when I walk into a studio though.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
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 get in the studio the idea is just to work and bang out as many as I can.
I'm never gonna go into a studio and work for a whole year non-stop. Just every day on my own in the studio working, it's just too damn hard.
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.
I hardly ever go into the studio with a work complete in my head. It emerges from communal activity.
I've been to the studio several times, and it's not that I'm not happy with what I've got, but each time I come away, I feel that I've learned something that I want to work on.
I like the idea of working my way up. I don't feel impatient to immediately jump into something that could literally bring down a studio if I don't do it well.
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.
I just want to be in the studio. When you've got all the gear you want in your own house, it's difficult to go out and do something else, you know?
I don't have a job, so I sit in the studio all the time and think of stupid stuff to do.
