More quotes by Malcolm Morley
You can looking at that glass of water, not as a glass of water, but as paint on a two-dimensional surface. It's not just a question of looking, but of doing, in relation to this, in relation to that, in relation to the space between things.
Malcolm Morley
The voice of painterly integrity spoke to me. And the idea was that one would find this anguish, or whatever, and construct it into images that would appear. You already feel very ill and you're trying to put this riddle together because it is the prescription for health. I believe in art as a spiritual health-giving process, not just some style.
Malcolm Morley
The idea is to have no idea. Get lost. Get lost in the landscape.
Malcolm Morley
The paintings have a lot to do with the idea of seeing and doing, and the relationship between your hand and your eye, and the object.
Malcolm Morley
Make friends with your unconscious life. That's a great source of energy.
Malcolm Morley
The idea of the self interests me a great deal. What is the self? And finding yourself, and which self? In a way, we're more than one self, but you somehow try to get to a rock bottom self.
