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.
