Artist non-statement For German TV and BBC

Artists make art. We don’t make statements about art. The art that we do inspires millions and billions to continue to voice their ideals in a way that better serves humanity. This is intrinsically what every artist on earth has committed to do. Some of us may become famous. Some of us may be anonymous artists who make graffiti arts around the world, but by the very nature of us being artists, we have committed to “furthering the human race” with the best of what our abilities/skills can provide.

Its not the “colour of our skin” that makes us beautiful…this is not about Look-ism either!

I have more features in common with Naomi Campbell than Brenda Song! Who would have guessed? Maybe when we get past the color of our skins and just look at the face of the person, even on a visual level we may be more similar to a member of another race than to our own? Wow, that’s a radical thought? 🙂 Not really!

The Colony Room: “You must remember this….a Muse is just a-muse…”

For those interested in iProtest London 2012, check this out (fb group )

Frankie Stein: I just saw a comment on your link to Time out. I had to laugh at Sarah’s comment that it wasn’t artistic, and they were all drunks and drug addicts! Hahaaaaaa!
Cecilia W Yu: lol. Sometimes its all part of the spin…if we all actually spent as much time in bohemia doing what the press suggested. I don’t think any art work would ever have been made or anything done at all…no one seems to understand how demanding a “life companion” the Artistic Muse is and sure, some uses the booze.

True Blood! Kill “IKEA ” Eric -Go back to Black!

I KNOW! This Emo….sulking depressed Scandinavian bloke thing! I’m like.What? I can go anywhere in the middle of winter and find one of those hanging around sulking about nothing! What they need is a good dose of light therapy paid for by their government…cos honestly….what Eric North-man needs is a good blood-bath…not this sitting in an Ikea furniture basement, having some sort of mid-life crisis about his “maker” and “boohoo, never playing in sunshine!” and wearing so much oversized American Beige clothing!

Artists of the world: Japan calling…..Give them your he-ART?

The post office were quickly up and running again and in many cases the first news that loved ones were safe was by postcard.
Inspired by the wonderful impact postcards can have, we would like to invite artists and poets to send tangible messages of support to communities affected by the devastation by making A5 size original artwork or poetry postcards. This is a professionally curated travelling art show.

Working with LS14 TRUST Digital Lounge: No Classes, just Animation here!

To date the LS14 Trust together with Seacroft Residents Association has been successful in supporting the Seacroft Gala and creating Sing on the Green at Christmas. Recently they converted the old rent office on Ramshead Hill into the ‘Digital Lounge’ which is a kind of informal drop-in centre for residents to access the internet and hold meetings.

Fluk Factory: School of Eco-tecture works with the Hunar Foundation !

I have undertaken to mentor a number of gifted Eco-tecture students in the future as the Director of Creative Designs. It is a very challenging tasks to stimulate future ecotects to “think of the Impossible” and then combine that with their technical know-how, “Make it do-erable”! That is at least my personal ethos in undertaking the mentorship program for the future. This is where Fine Arts meet Functionality, on a practical & culturally sustainable level.

Griffin Charitable Trust : Keeping Music firmly rooted in “Community”, empowering youths in Jamaica!

The gift of the musical instruments will enable our own children at the Sanctuary to learn a new musical skill and this will empower them to help other children. Unfortunately and fortunately, because of the limits of resources, our kids will be sharing the donation with Mustard Seed Communities Dare to Care Home for children infected with HIV/AIDS. We would love for every child to have their own musical instrument one day! In the meantime, the aim of setting up a shared experience is so that they will have a joint Musical Group in the future!
