Sean Scully: ‘There are no certainties in my paintings’
7.40 “It should be something that is happening all at once, that is inhabiting you and that you are doing and you have one way or another managed to get yourself into that space and there’s an angel on your shoulder. That’s how you should make art. If you are plotting art and trying to make something to get something you are not in a state of creative innocence. You are not making art; you are doing something else.” 8.24
