You can dwell on things, and if you open your eyes and pay attention to it, those things start popping up around you.
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 almost feel like if I didn't have the gallery and museum content it would be easy to get lost. People's attention spans are so short; they see something and it trends for a few days and then it goes away and something else comes.
Kalup LinzyIf I have a piece that's solely based on the web and it's going to also exist in a gallery, it needs to exist in a gallery where it doesn't feel redundant.
Kalup LinzyWhen I stepped back from the gallery I was in a phase where I thought I wasn't going to be making work for a gallery context for a while. People were like, "You should never leave a gallery if you didn't have somewhere else to go," but I wasn't trying to disrespect the gallerists in that way.
