finally a statement

To proceed with difficulty or great effort. Creating art is about looking and finding. Art has always been basically about agony, desperation and helplessness. That is why it is so important. It is this elusiveness and intangibility that keeps the search alive. To generate something new in this world inspires love and embarrassment in equal measures. It is this high threshold for embarrassment that reinforces the love necessary to make something which is genuine. Within this work I am both reassured and constantly longing for faith in what I am doing. It has become a stalemate, although one that remains fluid. In these circles I can search forever. While I cannot define what it is I am feeling it is real nonetheless.
