A TWO-DIMENSIONAL SURFACE WITHOUT ANY ARTICULATION IS A DEAD EXPERIENCE

If you're smart, you abandon the things that didn't work out so well, and you enlarge upon the things that seem to be successful.

Talent is cheap, you have to be possessed or obsessed, rather. You really have to feel like you cannot not do art, and that is something you can't will.

I always felt like I was right out of Dickens, looking in the window of the Christmas feast, but not at the feast.

Well, why is this art? Why isn't that art?

It's human desire to be understood. And we always feel we're not understood.

The idea was to take fine art and put it into the location of the movie scripts. The script itself is collage - some of the lines come from actual movies and I've written others to make the text work with the found image. In this way, the details of old dead guys' paintings (from the collection of the Städel Museum in Frankfurt, where this work will be exhibited in relation to the historical paintings) become illustrations of the movie scripts. I found this mélange of high art and Hollywood amusing.
