Quotable Kiki


God, I love Kiki Smith.  Betsy Lewis of Glasstire captures some of her honest and hilarious quotes from a recent lecture at UNT in The Quotable Kiki Smith.  Here are some of my faves.

"I made it then I thought, 'you are ridiculous'."

"People say, 'Oh you're moving around too much in your work,' but I'm not trying to get anywhere."

"I went back to a super-hippie phase, which I'm in now."

"It's not to be read in some linear way that these are ABOUT things.  They just ARE things."

"You don't need to know what you're doing in the slightest."

"It completely changes a neighborhood if you put a sculpture in it."

"I love honey, and I love bees, and I love making things."
