00:07Se si pensi che non puoi fare, puoi.
00:11Non c'è regola, non c'è regola.
00:14Non c'è regola.
00:20Sono un'artista, e ogni giorno e le ho, le ho, le ho, le ho, le ho, le ho, le ho, le ho, le ho, le ho.
00:26Sono un'artista, un'unico, ma è quello che ho.
00:48Sono Sue Kreisman, sono 81.5 anni.
00:52Sono otto, un'artista, un'artista, un'artista.
00:58Ho sempre detto che era molto malato.
01:00Anche aveva un autore, chavo 27, ho chavo all'interno di TV,
01:06e vi allò qui a tutti i nostri amici.
01:09But then at 58 I was sitting at a table correcting the proofs of my 27th cookbook.
01:16I picked up a marker and my hand drew a mermaid on a piece of paper.
01:20It was like this kind of folk art mermaid with a fish as a hat and snakes.
01:25And I never did such a thing in my life.
01:28From that moment on I was a different person.
01:31I was an artist.
01:33And I became obsessed with drawing.
01:35Absolutely obsessed.
01:36Never wrote another cookbook.
01:39How would you describe your art?
01:52How do I describe my art?
01:54I guess I'm what's called an outsider artist.
01:56And that means working way outside the margins of the regular art world, which is fine with me.
02:02And because I had my big career, I'm not interested in selling.
02:06I'm making my art for myself and when other people like it, I'm delighted.
02:17My art is very shamanistic.
02:20In many ways it's very childish.
02:22It's very, very, very colorful.
02:25I'm an assemblage artist.
02:27I assemble.
02:28I love junk.
02:29That's why every week I go to the flea market.
02:31Oh my God, I love junk.
02:32And I love taking detritus.
02:34It's almost like being an archaeologist.
02:36And my art is about the female landscape.
02:38It's always about women.
02:40This is where I work.
02:47It's a great big shed.
02:48It's full of my materials.
02:50And right now I'm working on several of my found object sculptures.
02:54They're essentially anthropomorphic memory jugs.
02:57And always have a female theme.
03:00And they tell stories.
03:01They tell stories about femininity and also my personal mythology.
03:05And this is going to be about the goddess phone.
03:09And here is the goddess phone.
03:12You dial any goddess you want.
03:15And the goddess will answer.
03:17Does my art have a mission?
03:22You know, if I'm an outsider artist, I'm doing it for the sheer visceral joy of doing it.
03:29Without love in your heart
03:31Without my own
03:32Without love by your side
03:35Without my own
03:36When you're an outsider artist like me, and many people I know, the art does not come from your head.
03:42There's no planning.
03:44It doesn't come from the heart. It comes from the gut.
03:47And then suddenly it just is. It almost makes it so.
03:58When I first burst into art, I didn't tell most of my friends.
04:02And at that time, I didn't have that weird and colorful artistic group of friends that I have now.
04:07I had fairly, I don't want to say ordinary because they were nice people, but damn it, they were fairly ordinary.
04:13And I didn't even tell them.
04:15My family, yes, they were gobsmacked.
04:18You know, what happened to mother?
04:20My family were very supportive.
04:22And my husband thinks something else.
04:24He said, this is better than Picasso.
04:26I said, well, honey, I don't know if we'd go that far.
04:29Thank you.
04:30Tell me what you do.
04:32Tell me what you do.
04:34And I'm living a dream right now.
04:36I really am because all my friends are artists.
04:39We believe in color.
04:40Most of us are outsider artists.
04:42So our work is wild and bold and often very crazy.
04:46And yes, it's a dream come true.
04:48Without love in your heart.
04:49Without love by your side.
04:50Without love playing part.
04:51Without love playing part.
04:52Tell me what you do.
04:53Tell me what you do.
04:54Tell me what you do.
04:58will you do?
04:59Do you?
05:01We'll look at that tomorrow night.
05:02That's really me.
05:03I love playing part.
05:05evolving art,
05:06I love playing part.
05:07Tell me what you do.
05:09Paul, I love playing part.
05:11Tell me what you do.
05:15Tell me what you do.
