"I have always been dissatisfied with work that just appeals to your intellect and does not actually involve you in a physical way. For me, the embodiment of an artwork is within the physical realm; the body is the axis of our perceptions, so how can art afford not to take that as a starting point? We relate to the world through our senses. You first experience an artwork physically. I like the work to operate on both sensual and intellectual levels. Meaning, connotations and associations come after the initial physical experience as your imagination, intellect, psyche are fired off by what you've seen."
Very busy with my essay at the moment so am sharing snippets of quotes I am using for that today, hope you like?
