I've been making bronze sculptures for a long time. My sculptures are wholly unsuccessful and uncommercial. No one is even the remotest bit interested in them. So it's almost like my hobby. Tracey Emin All graffiti is low-level dissent, but stencils have an extra history. They've been used to start revolutions and to stop wars. Banksy Laugh a lot. It clears the lungs. David Hockney

"“Do not imagine you can exorcise what oppresses you in life by giving vent to it in art. No. The heart's dross does not find its way on to paper: all you pour out there is ink.” From Flaubert's Letters. Emphasis is mine, work with dictionary is y'all's.
