grand works of art, of huge scale and high detail, are a privilege that not all artists have access to. how is an artist without a studio to make a large-scale piece? how is an artist who needs a full time job meant to devote the time to create intricate details? how can an artist practice, if they can't afford the risk of wasting materials? what we often view as innate talent, is a sign of systemic issues we all are effected by to varying degrees. art is a reflection of the artist's own material reality. to create art is to create waste. what if you can't afford to waste? I want to ask those who view art to consider all the things that are not seen.
