Do you think art is giving expression to our feeling. or what is art to you?

Oui clairement, même si ça ne se réduit pas qu'à ça ! Que l'artiste le veuille ou non, je pense que ses sentiments transparaissent au travers de ses productions. C'est d'abord avec nos propres énergies intimes que l'on créé; après on peut tenter de les dissimuler ou pas, mais elles resteront toujours visibles, quoiqu'on fasse. D'ailleurs j'ai souvent tendance à rougir quand je montre une toile la première fois à certaines personnes ; la peur peut-être qu'elle n'en découvre sur moi plus que je ne le sache déjà ! hahaha ;)

From what I heard when I watched your performing, it was so exciting. Real brutal and jarring sounds. It's like punk, electronic, hip hop, tribal, heavy metal, it's like noise music. It's all there. I'm wondering how you got into all that.

do you think your art is giving expression to your feeling. what is art to you? nuno evaristo

100% yes. My art is mostly about my feelings, about my struggles and about the things I see. The things I struggle to understand. and the questions that wonder in my head, pretty much at all times. Art to me is about honesty. It’s about expressing yourself. But in reality most artists and art, is about approval and fucking fame. I don’t need any of that. I paint because I feel the need to speak up. Even if against myself. There’s very little honest art, out there. Or at least I see none. All I see is people painting bullshit, color combinations and very little more than that. But if that’s how they want to express themselves, cool.

Sue Coe quotes

It’s changing now. It’s known now that global warming and meat production are very much interlinked. And that will change. We are moving in that direction. Factory farming’s been outlawed in Europe. It will be outlawed here. It will become illegal to factory farm here. It’s very slow going. At one time I wasn’t aware, and the awareness came slowly. I hope that the same will happen to other people. It’s what’s done to children in the school meal program. This is why children have A.D.D. They’re being fed sugar and processed food. It’s all very obvious to us. To murder your own children. If we could sum up this culture in America—it murders its young. It murders the young.

Art is simply a language and is interpreted in no different way than one would from the charisma of the speaker/listener. Whether it is words spoken to forgotten air, or a dedicated perspective, a means of conversation that has more of the intent of interpretation retains the common verbal tongue has a firm meaning in life.

Can you tell us something about your school life. How did you spend it?
My school life was play a lot than the study. Many of crappy play. Bike, skateboard, punk band etc. I think that the play is in the source of my now of creative activity.

Interview with DaHang Zhou by Black Dog Bone

What really impressed me about your artwork is the way you and your brother work together on a painting, and also the performance side of your work. How did you get the idea to do performances of you on stage painting? Is it something done in China?

interviewd by Blackdog

You are a very unusual artist. I have never seen the style of art that you do? how you use different pieces of cut fabric to create your art. can you explain a bit about that. how you got in to it. its so wonderful.
