⧯ On the Silver Couch: Puppies Puppies



Artist Puppies Puppies


☮:  Tell us your story of your life in 140ch:

⧯ :  oops I went way over 140 ch
Mom Japanese Irish Father Puerto Rican
they met in Texas
birthed me
hated living in Texas
gay kid’s worst nightmare
discovered art at the age of 17
made angst-filled emo sculptures about the body and my organs 
felt very shy in every way
I am an insanely fragile person
made friends on the internet….felt like the only place I could be myself
then moved to Chicago 
went to school 
smoked weed to relax
realized who I was / am 
realized art could literally be anything 
diagnosed with a brain tumor
very dark times
had tumor removed 
kept making art
realized life is too short to care what people think
carried on and tried to break boundaries 
as many as I could 
Puppies Puppies was born
met Forrest felt life was worth living more than ever
counting down the days until I live in
Los Angeles the land of 
beautiful weather, Hollywood, and gays 

☮:What's the dividing line being an artist and an Instagram user?

⧯ there is no line there should never be a line! As long as you call it art there can be no distinction otherwise 

☮:What would you like to do in 30 years from now?

⧯ hopefully be alive and I want to take over the world

⧯ On the Silver Couch: Forrest Nash


Critic and Founder of Contemporary Art Daily: Forrest Nash

☮:  Tell us your story of your life in 140ch:

I grew up near the mountains, I've lived my adulthood in flat prairie, and now I'm moving to the coast. 

☮:  What's the most interesting thing about our era now ?

 : I think it is interesting how little people of the current era notice the changes happening around Them, and how rarely most people seem to marvel at the even more drastic changes will happen Within our lifetimes that I always feel a sense of overwhelming wonder about the ways that our time is different than the past, but people just sort of shrug. I think understanding that indifference Could be very valuable. 

☮: What's your favorite quote?

 : "And That Is the main condition of absurdity-the dragooning of an unconvinced transcendent consciousness into the service of an immanent, limited enterprise like a human life" - Thomas Nagel

Artist Zoe Paul

☮: Tell us your story of your life in 140ch

: I was born from South African political refugees who moved to Kythera in the 1970s; they were told "you have a beautiful house but there is no life in it"; when I was born they called me Ζωή

☮: What's your thoughts about everyday life in Greece?

:...let's see what the future holds...Greece can be a scary place. I have started making an aromatic garden these days so I'm spending quite a bit of time researching Mediterranean plants, for which the climate is very conducive.

☮: Whats your relationship with authority in general? 

:You know, I cannot understand whether sometimes I'm a bit of a dick with authority or it is the other way around.
