CONSCIOUSNESS

I think the artist’s responsibility is to not be afraid and to not self censor. All the great artistic discoveries, and insights, and intuitions have been made in a condition of fearlessness on the part of the artist, and not self censorship, and not obeisance to serve whatever social norm seems to be prevalent at the time. As soon as you start to censor, you are no longer an artist, you are an interior decorator, you might as well forget it.
