Worth Posting it ?



Long time i haveN't posted any real-artista here,its the feeling that i have. maybe this one is worth posting him. i 'n know, i like the drawing...:

I AM ME and YOU ARE YOU and NIETHER OF US IS HAPPY..
We live in this time where everything is in the present tense. Memories are simply the source materials for “tonight’s act.” Any film clip or historical document can be summoned by surfing the web, and entire TV networks are devised to trot out re-runs of Westerns and cartoons, all juxtaposed against the backdrop of people downloading what just happened, off of their telephones for public consumption. Through this, I am a storyteller. An archivist and an entertainer. And most importantly an artist. My job is to use all of this source material, and run it through the prism of my own life and create a moment. To make an experience for the audience to experience. Laughter and the wry smile are my payoff. The work works best when I get these same results every time the audience comes back for more. I use the familiar, and cram my own self into it to see how it fits. Then I parade around to show off how badly it usually does. For the most part, I dispense with naming names. I like it that people get the idea without them. People seem to get what I am talking about without them. But sometimes the name is the crucial ingredient.
Which reminds me of a story….

  1. Another option is to leave the art and become the weather man, and hopefully some day get wet?

  4. Friendship is just a state of mind most of the time, maybe the hardest part is facing the possibility of intercourse with the art institution and not be flabby in the attempt.
