More quotes by Wayne White
I'm a perfectionist I guess. Everyone has to love me.
Wayne White
Exposing something that's painful or raw or not so pleasant. That seems to be the dramatic motor of documentaries, exposure.
Wayne White
I had to learn to do stuff only for myself, and stop thinking about pleasing some imaginary client or boss. It's a habit that many artists get into that have worked in commercial ventures.
Wayne White
If they make the deadline because the Shiites and Kurds essentially rammed a draft through over Sunni Arab objections, there will be hell to pay.
Wayne White
Puppets are pure form then ideas for performance come out of that. It's always the form and the visuals and that's why I like to make puppets in a gallery or museum. They're not often in those contexts.
Wayne White
Making art is nothing but risk, always. If it's not risk, it's no good.
Wayne White
It's about communication, no matter how impossibly hard your art is to understand and how much of an ivory tower or high horse you get on, it's still basically communication or why are you doing it?
Wayne White
Once the cameras rolling or the audience is in the seats, I'm on. I can't help it. I go into a trance.
Wayne White
It would be really embarrassing to introduce yourself as somebody who makes beauty.
Wayne White
Artists are people who create beauty. That's the bottom line.
Wayne White
All I do is work, that's all my life is work.
Wayne White
Almost all Iraqis with any previous experience in the intelligence business are Sunni Arab, increasing the risk of penetration of the new intelligence apparatus by the insurgency.
Wayne White
But I think frustration is hilarious. One of my missions is to bring humor into fine art. It's sacred.
Wayne White
But nobody predicted anything of this magnitude in terms of resistance. And in part, the magnitude of the resistance was spurred by our failures in reconstruction.
Wayne White
The only tip I have for an artist is perseverance... Never give up.
Wayne White
People that are born beautiful like supermodels act like entitled a**holes. It makes you embarrassed just to see 'em. They handle beauty embarrassingly.
Wayne White
I want to communicate. I do every artist does. That's why you're an artist.
Wayne White
Static puppets, I wanted them to move, they're looking out the windows, but we didn't have time to rig those. I have more ideas than I can execute also every time that I do anything. I put the puppets in because people love 'em. I'm a populist in that sense.
Wayne White
When I perform I'm very extroverted and I wear my heart on my sleeve and some people don't like that. They're embarrassed for me.
Wayne White
When we see something beautiful it calls up raw, naked emotion and that's an embarrassing situation to be in.
