About exhibiting life lived fully

[txt] If you’re lonely… – Martin Creed

Maybe working is trying, and work — the result of work — is everything that one tries to do. Trying… looking for excitement, or trying to handle it and use it to get out of the paté. Trying to do things; talking. Or maybe testing is a good way of putting it: testing things out. Testing things out by putting things about, and all the time trying, hoping to be excited, wanting. Wanting is what makes me work: excitement, desire for something.Sometimes people say: ‘What the fuck do you think you’re doing? That’s not art.’ I say: ‘Fuck off, assholes!’
