I'm pleased that there's a dialog about my work

0:00:22.870,0:00:26.480
but there's some misrepresentation, some people

0:00:26.480,0:00:29.986
may think that my work is just about money.

0:00:29.986,0:00:32.698
Certain aspects of my work are about money because

0:00:32.698,0:00:36.816
my work also talks about desire

0:00:36.816,0:00:39.868
but ahhh... the work's not about money, it's not

0:00:39.868,9:59:59.000
about just making something to sell.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I've learned earlier on, when i always worked

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
with ready made objects; that i'd do everything

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
to care and protect that ready made and

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
to preserve it's integrity and every perfection

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and imperpection

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and one day when i make sculpture ahh...

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
everything was a fiasco, and ahh... i couldn't save

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
the sculpture unless i really did something radical to it.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And i realize to that moment that i really didn't care

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
about objects - i cared about people, and

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that's where the imperfections were, that's what the perfections were

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that i really cared about.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and so i feel a moral responsability everytime

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
i make something, to give something a hundred

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
per cent because that's what i care about; i care about the view.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You know, specially today it's not unusual for

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
an artist that large studios...

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
if you're interested in making more than one painting

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
a year or if you're interested in making more than

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
one sculpture, you have to be able to have support.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I like to work with people because i don't wanna be in

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
a room by myself. I mean, i love the sense of family

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that i have with my studio.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It's part of business aspect of work and making

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
things you don't have to look at the bottom line on

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
each issue. If you want to create something, even

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
though it's impractical and usually they're really, but

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
the best things are impractical. In great art usually

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
is very impractical, you know you can just go about

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and you can make it. You really don't have any

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
choice, cause if you're making your work:

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
you have to do it.
