He was on the tele last week, and said something like, "working is like pinching yourself to see if you feel something."
I hate to say it, but I often find listening to a well-known artist talk about his or her work annoying. Not Martin Creed. I love hearing him explain how he works, how he thinks, what he does. He is so articulate, approachable, interesting and sincere. Well, at least I think so.
I also like that when he does not know something, he just says, "well, I dunno."
Martin Creed will be at Cafe Oto, just around the corner from my flat, on Wednesday March 2nd to perform "Thinking/Not Thinking," I wish you could be here to come with me MLE, really looking forward.
