Art 21 - Kiki Smith

Kiki Smith growing up and going to school she says it was very difficult for her to read. So she rely on her sight to help her learn things. Smith likes for her artwork to have a meaning behind it. She says in the interview "Basically, I think art is just a way to think, it's like standing in the wind and letting it pull you in whatever drection it wants to go.." So she has her own storytelling behnd her pieces of art. However she wants for other people who look at her art work, for it to tell a meaning and a story to them too. She thinks art as if something that is inside of you and when you create your artwork you are bringing what is on your inside to the physical world. That art work is a representation of your spirit.
