Art is supposed to be about creativity. But the same people are the same art darlings every month, and it's a bit annoying. It's supposed to be diverse and interesting and conceptual and have weird concepts in a comfortable place.
Instead of going to war, we should put the money into arts and culture and let creative people define what Britain is.
I hate the idea of street art. With music, I just needed my brain and my voice, which didn't cost anything.
I come from a generation where you put the art out and had the luxury to sit back and watch the world deconstruct it, and that was valued. Unfortunately now the work lives in a weird context.
You have to have your fashion stylist person not sell out and sell your s - t to another pop star because they can pay them twice as much, and do it for the belief and the love of art.
I think when something becomes a comfortable genre, it's against what street art stood for in the beginning - breaking out of genres and taking art out of galleries. Now street art is in the gallery, and it's all made up into a nice, packaged concept.
Any piece of art, when you're putting it on a certain platform, if the platform becomes a political place, you can manipulate things.
That's what New York is like - you can't have real art happen in an institution because rich people can make the world stop. The stuff on the street is a lot more interesting.
What really drives me mad about art is that, in America, the only thing you can do is to take it apart.
