art, and making art is about looking.
I draw a line or use color, look at it,
another line, color or ripped piece of paper, looking again,
a line over the other line, color over color, looking again,
I sit down and have a look from the other side, turn the canvas around, place it in different light, look again…

A collage is a mix of everything of whats happening in daily life. And I or we, dont have this life planned. Every day is a surprise, even when you think you have a boring life there are always surprises. When you recognice them, willing to see them, willing to welcome them. Even when they are small and without meaning. A wall, a solid stone wall is able to speak. I dont have a clue what they are saying but thats not important. It is just to know that you are not alone on this world, which is something hé, dont underestimate the unspeakable words of a stone wall.

James Rosenquist. Painting Below Zero: Notes on a Life in Art.
“Frank, funny, truthful, ironic and in every way an entertaining account of one major American artist’s involvement in an art movement that interests everyone–and, more than that, of his own character. Jim Rosenquist is a true American original and his book ought to be read by anyone who wants to understand the last half-century of his country’s visual culture, high, low, and in between.” –Robert Hughes, amazon
