thinking about different sides of self (inside & out)
and of the whole.
I hate writing artist's statements. I'm not disabled. I went to special schools and all that, took tests over and over. I'm a bad speller but a good driver;
fast reflexes, sharp spatial sense.
I just have a hard time with some things.
My work isn't about technique or the perfect moment. I work in layers,
seeing different things at the same time, more like driving than
reading. According to the UN definition, according to doctors and
teachers I am a person with a disability. Am I rebelling, hiding, in
denial, refusing labels, being difficult? Is it pride, shame, laziness?
I don't know. The process of making art doesn't culminate in answers; it just makes it so I can see different things at the same time. |
