Why would you not apply a term like vocation as a motivational factor to produce art? Could you explain this a bit more?
SC:
In my opinion, if you want to be a serious/professional artist (if you do not really have backbone/backup who can put you in the right way except you yourself?) and however the situation is, whether it is good or bad you have to go on in your own way.
From my experiences and thinking, to be a good and great artist it is about “long run” (time and experiences) and when we are talking about “long run” it always is connected with making a “brand name”. That - I was thinking - is the truth in the system of the international art world. We (artists) cannot deny that this is a part of the fact that we are defined as artists. We have to accept it, even if we do not think about business/a brand name. But in the real world/international art world none of the people really being involved will do the job or work just for “free” or work for something like “art for life/art for the art’s sake”, without any kind of benefit whatever it might be.
