September 28 The advantage of reaching a certain age is that, since the majority of our life is behind us, we have the privilege of possessing a very large number of points of comparison.
September 25 The world is populated only by imbeciles, and among all these imbeciles, there is only a tiny minority that strives day after day to be a little less stupid. These are the ones who may one day save the world. But since the time they've been trying, I doubt they'll ever succeed.
September 5 To prevent causing offense, I exclusively critique deceased artists.
August 18 Whenever i get to feel this way, my own art bores me, so imagine the feeling of what other artist's work does to me in those moments.
August 15 Once in a while I need to simplify my work, to reduce it to a simple physical effort, much like a composer who would be satisfied with a long silence. I let the simplicity of emptiness express itself, much like the wind passing through the leaves before a storm.
August 10 I often hear long speeches about what art is and what it should be used for. Art is too often used for purposes that have nothing to do with it anymore. Art has no obligations towards politics, religion, morality, money, or even its audience. The only obligation that must exist is that of the artists towards their art. It is that of honesty and well-done work without any compromise
June 22 I don't paint to create a revolutionary work that has never been done, but to create a work that I have never done.
June 11 2025 There are no better artists among the good ones, they only exist among the bad ones.
June 9 2025 It is paradoxical and ironic that certain artists, who first argued that the significance of art resides solely in the concept—often delegating the creation of their works to others—are today among the foremost critics of artificial intelligence in the artistic domain.
May 5 2025 I believe that for a creator, the pursuit of novelty for the sake of novelty is as sterile as plagiarism.
I am convinced that an artist should only follow his own path, one that leads to the discovery of himself and thus his own style.
July 27 2025 In general, I believe that those in the art world who take themselves too seriously are simply pretentious and talentless snobs. When talent exists, it does not have to be announced with trumpets and clarions.
Sept 1 2025 My primary objective in my art is to please myself, to make pieces that completely delight me, which is a challenging undertaking.
