Mind The Gap - It's

Onscreen, Babies And Animals Are My Inspiration. They're So Alive And There And Not Messed Up In The Head The Way I Am.

What I Find Interesting Is This Ricochet Effect, That The Audience Perceives The Work And Then Does Something With It, Throws It Back To The World, And There's An Ongoing Interaction Between Work And Audience, Which Doesn't Belong To The Artist Anymore - From The Moment You Release It, It Doesn't Belong To Anybody.

Please, I Need You To Save My Ass.

You Don't Fully Understand The Meaning Of A Work Until The Audience Responds To It. Because The Audience Completes The Circle, And Adds A Whole Other Shade Of Meaning. Whenever You View Something, And This Is Why Great Works Of Art Survive Decades And Centuries, Is Because There's A Door Within The Work That Allows The Audience To Walk Through And Complete The Meaning Of The Work. An Audience Isn't Passive, Nor Are They Unintelligent.

No, It’s Very Comforting Actually, To Know That You’re Sitting In A Long Legacy Of Actresses Who’ve Played The Role. I’m Absolutely All For Absorbing All Of Those Influences, So You Understand The Pedigree Of The Part As Much As You Understand The Figure In History… Because You Are Playing The Part. You Don’t Say: “gosh, I Want To Play Peter Sellers…” Because You Can Sort Of Do That In Your Own Bathroom.
