Part of my work is dedicated to artisanship and can only be done by very few people because it requires a specific technique. Being an artist is being at the service of yourself; I am at the service of other people.

Being an artist is being at the service of yourself; I am at the service of other people.
Part of your job as an artist is to push yourself and make sure your creative juices are flowing.
An artist's duty is rather to stay open-minded and in a state where he can receive information and inspiration. You always have to be ready for that little artistic Epiphany.
When I've worked with established artists, I've naturally been more restricted, but you still have to take risks and push yourself to do something different.
I am not a performer but occasionally I deliberately work in a public context. Some sculptures need the movement of people around them to work.
I make a good living and I've never looked at myself as being an artiste.
It's the duty of all novelists, all painters, all musicians, all people who try to make art move: to look for something they feel authentically, without paying attention to styles.
I don't think there is too much art involved in what I do.
I am not an artist. I am a craftsman.
What an artist is trying to do for people is bring them closer to something, because of course art is about sharing. You wouldn't be an artist unless you wanted to share an experience, a thought.
