I do not adjust to the art market, to policies of museums, galleries, obey the power used by those who like to use it to benefit themselves only. You adjust to art, to the artist, to the outside world, to those who consume art, to those who do not consume it. To consume art is a terrible thought itself. We have to find because it does not find us.

When there are people who place themselves above the artist because they have got the money, the contacts, the art places, authority to create art talk things get upside down, authority and hierarchy dictate what gets seen and what is considered interesting and important. When bureaucrats want to be the artist, look down on the artists, take power of the artist and manipulate the scene for themselves to appear in good light art is not free and the artists are slaves they obviously wish to be (scared idiots). It gets dull, uninteresting, serving to the system and its employees. Get rid of the staff who do not understand the meaning of change, who do not want to be part of change and making a change. People do not understand the meaning and character of art in the first place as it is isolated and made unapproachable. You like your job? What the fuck is your job? You like the money and your position too much?

Get used to uncertainty, to threat, to mockery, to poverty, unkindness, stupidity, irrationality. Your friends are not your friends, they turn against you as they see it beneficial for them. Are you walking the dog or is the dog walking you?

Ehdotus kollektiivitaideteokseksi: Huomatkaa oman vaikuttamisen mahdollisuudet, jotka eivät saa jäädä käyttämättä!

Ota mikä tahansa puulevy, mdf-, vaneri, lauta yms. puinen kappale, sellainen, jolle ei ole muuta käyttöä. Maalaa se haluamallasi värillä, puhtaalla, näkyvällä, kauniilla, poissaolevalla, puuttuvalla, ikävöidyllä, lempivärillä kokonaan ja molemmilta puolilta. Levy voi olla niin suuri tai pieni kuin haluat ja rohkenet käyttää. Maali voi olla akryyli-, öljy- tai muovimaalia. Akryylimaalella kenties löytää näkyvimmät ja monipuolisimmat värit. Vaihtoehtoisesti voit tehdä raitoja, neliöitä, mutta pysyttele yksinkertaisessa, minimalistisessa ilmaisussa. Tärkeintä on, että värikäs kohde ei uppoa ympäristöön, vaan erottuu siitä. Yhdellä värillä väritetty esine suomalaisessa kaupunkimaisemassa on ajatus jota kaipaan. Aseta maalaus mihin tahansa haluaamasi kohtaan kaupungissasi julkisessa tilassa ulkona tai sisällä. Maalaus on mielenilmaus väritöntä, monotonista julkista tilaa kohtaan.

Mikä on oman teon vaikutus, koska mikään ei ole yhdentekevää. Entä ylimääräisen kappaleen vaikutus tilassa, jossa ei odota olevan ylimääräistä, värin vaikutus ihmisen mieleen, maalaamisen, minkä tahansa maalaamisen, värin lisäämisen henkilökohtainen ja yleinen vaikutus ja kuinka irtautua passiivisuudesta, että ympärillä vain tapahtuu asioita, joihin ei voi vaikuttaa tai ajatuksesta ettei osaa, ei ole tekemistä yms. Voi myös miettiä mikä on tärkeää tekemistä ja millaisella teolla on arvoa itselle ja ympäristölle.

Justifications for hating someone you do not know: what could that be? I have my theories and I have difficulties in accepting I live among emotionally undeveloped and infantile people, but after having been convinced in so many ways without change for better I have to believe what I hear and see. It takes some time to accept that there are people who are so filled with bitterness, prejudice and hate that without second thought they pass their emotional garbage on. It is heartbreaking to know that mankind has not intellectually evolved much. Passing on hate it tends to multiply, come back at you and grow. When you detox and change your diet I wish your mind will have a purifying effect and you will be a better person to people you know and to people you do not and of course to yourself. Peace and love!

I must ask this because it is a striking contradiction within the art world, narcissism gets the best of it. There are patterns that repeat ill that revolves inside a small space without chance of healing nor change. What kind of spiritual leader an artist is and should that be the case of an artist? What is artist’s task other than bring light? It is what is emphasized somehow, but there is very little profound spirituality there or will to find unity and compassion. That artist has her view on the world which she reflects on her work. There is everything she faces, experiences, hears and sees put in to be the image of what is. Does that change anything, the reflecting, should there be an alternative to that image copied over and over? The world or the world that humanity makes that is very complex and problematic not finding a cure for that illness that torments from day-to-day and is obvious and hurtful.

Is artist a leader at all or a guide and what kind of artist is a guide?

In addition

It is funny that often when an artist has a job she does not get paid for doing the job, because it is pay enough to be noticed and displayed. It is the joy of being an artist to give away one’s talent and work. So in this light those ’jobs’ seem particularly uninteresting, humiliating and enslaving. The point of this kind of work remains to be considered not worth doing and having. In addition to that artist as a person and her work are likely on a whim and as a rule to be put down like trash. It is not uncommon to hear there are all kinds of artists (meaning crazy, obscure, obscene, unbalanced, dangerous, poor, bad, dirty, unworthy, suspicious, unpredictable etc) and that curator has to be careful whom to work with such sub-humans, introduce to partners and ask for dinner, as a curator once told me. Well to tell you, curator, if you recognize yourself pay attention, you are absolutely right and hopefully you will never work again. You have this little respect for artists as people and as workers you are in the wrong business.

Just to remind you PhD. candidacy, doctoral degree, artistry, position in an organization do not elevate you to treat people as unintelligent garbage. Never forget.

Negativity is a pretty lame word for ill.
