Split Ritual II (1992) |
"I feel that one has to have a bit of neurosis to go on being an artist. A balanced human seldom produces art. It's the imbalance which impels us . . . . The artist lives with anxiety."

Do you have a bit of a neurosis? Do you sometimes feel off balanced? Do you live with anxiety? Then maybe you are an artist. Or just maybe you are a human being. I don't know any normal humans. Most are slightly off kilter — off balance. And that is okay. Our neurosis fuels our creativity. Our anxiety helps us produce our art. It is okay to be strange and weird — to see the world differently then everyone else, to feel slightly off balance. Be happy you are you. Enjoy your point of view.
