Jackson Pollock (1912 - 1956) The Deep (La Profondeur) 1953
What if Pollock had reversed the challenge?
What if instead of making
art without thinking, he said,
'You know what? I can't paint anything,
unless I know exactly why I'm doing it.'
What would have happened?
He
never would have made a single mark.
The challenge is not to act
automatically.
It's to find an action that is not automatic.
From
painting,
to breathing,
to talking,
to fucking.
To falling in love.
