I feel like my perception has changed a little because when I was posting stuff online it was an extension of my studio and then it started getting some of the attention. Now it's like, "Oh, this is actually a place where you can make money," but I'm not interested in competing in that space. It seems like too much to deal with.
Kalup LinzyI've learned that I need to learn how to direct without making the person distracted and keeping them comfortable, and pay more attention to lighting.
Kalup LinzyI realized that was what was happening in my work already. I think that's where, as artists, we begin to master our craft: when we're able to step back and understand things.
Kalup LinzyI'm actually looking for a gallery, but the thing is some galleries just want to show the video work and some are just interested in the 2-D work. It has to be a gallery where I can do the 2-D collages, the video, and live performance, where it's not this weird conflict, where it can all move forward.
