1
00:00:15,226 --> 00:00:15,227
I'm pleased that there's a dialog about my work

2
00:00:19,289 --> 00:00:19,290
but there's some misrepresentation, some people

3
00:00:23,936 --> 00:00:23,937
may think that my work is just about money.

4
00:00:28,014 --> 00:00:28,015
Certain aspects of my work are about money because

5
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:32,001
my work also talks about desire

6
00:00:36,632 --> 00:00:36,632
but ahhh... the work's not about money, it's not

7
00:00:36,632 --> 00:00:36,633
about just making something to sell.

8
00:00:42,308 --> 00:00:42,309
I've learned earlier on, when i always worked

9
00:00:47,325 --> 00:00:47,325
with ready made objects; that i'd do everything

10
00:00:47,325 --> 00:00:47,326
to care and protect that ready made and

11
00:00:51,231 --> 00:00:51,232
to preserve it's integrity and every perfection

12
00:00:55,232 --> 00:00:55,233
and imperfection

13
00:01:00,202 --> 00:01:00,203
and one day when i made sculpture ahh...

14
00:01:04,127 --> 00:01:04,127
everything was a fiasco, and ahh... i couldn't save

15
00:01:04,127 --> 00:01:04,128
the sculpture unless i really did something radical to it.

16
00:01:13,245 --> 00:01:13,245
And i've realized to that moment that i really didn't care

17
00:01:13,245 --> 00:01:13,246
about objects - i cared about people, and

18
00:01:16,943 --> 00:01:16,944
that's where the imperfections were, that's where the perfections were

19
00:01:24,022 --> 00:01:24,023
that i really cared about.

20
00:01:28,962 --> 00:01:28,962
and so i feel a moral responsability everytime

21
00:01:28,962 --> 00:01:28,963
i make something, to give something a hundred

22
00:01:33,164 --> 00:01:33,165
per cent because that's what i care about; i care about the view.

23
00:01:41,074 --> 00:01:41,075
You know, specially today it's not unusual for

24
00:01:49,476 --> 00:01:49,476
artist that large, studios...

25
00:01:49,476 --> 00:01:49,477
if you're interested in making more than one painting

26
00:01:57,248 --> 00:01:57,248
a year or if you're interested in making more than

27
00:01:57,248 --> 00:01:57,249
one sculpture, you have to be able to have support.

28
00:02:05,286 --> 00:02:05,287
I like to work with people because i don't wanna be in

29
00:02:08,379 --> 00:02:08,380
a room by myself. I mean, i love the sense of family

30
00:02:12,195 --> 00:02:12,196
that i have with my studio.

31
00:02:15,611 --> 00:02:15,612
It's part of business aspect of work and making

32
00:02:19,612 --> 00:02:19,613
things you don't have to look at the bottom line on

33
00:02:23,967 --> 00:02:23,968
each issue. If you want to create something, even

34
00:02:28,076 --> 00:02:28,077
though it's impractical and usually they're really.

35
00:02:32,092 --> 00:02:32,093
The best things are impractical. Great art usually

36
00:02:35,308 --> 00:02:35,309
is very impractical, you know you can just go about

37
00:02:39,447 --> 00:02:39,448
and you can make it. You really don't have any

38
00:02:42,818 --> 00:02:42,818
choice, cause if you're making your work:

39
00:02:42,818 --> 00:02:42,819
you have to do it.
