i think i have a bad tendency to try and create art as a coping mechanism in the midst of Whatever… but usually that stage of things ends up being messy, uncomfortable, and poorly made (esp bad when i’ve invested too much in it already lol)
the most beautiful worthwhile stuff is made after the Whatever, and that’s the hardest because you have to confront that mess with complete clarity

It can feel as alienating and heartbreaking to make anything right now. The attempt is what matters. I’ve been trying to make art for a while and feel gratification in doing it but I think that’s the problem isn’t it? We force it and when it doesn’t come out in the way we want it to it feels like we shouldn’t even try. By the nature of you making it’s important, and your art is needed rlight now-
even though it doesn’t feel like its being witnessed. You are a witness to it

At least it’s out there. I get so caught up in my heart being in it’s most perfect form but if I could actually access that impossibility I wouldn’t grow from the process. Basic I know, but its good to be reminded of.

just had an epiphany about how everyone seeks something different from art, how we all perceive it based on who we are as individuals … for the longest time in art/film school i’ve been scared to pursue the art i want out of fear that it will turn out very bad.
but i hope we make art anyway despite that fear, as long as it sustains ourselves and the people who matter. i hope we all get to freely make “bad” art 🫂
