  • and he said,
  • I want you to have these colors.
  • I think you'll like these colors.
  • It was like a light bulb.
  • And I said, oh, this is just color.
  • These are just pieces of color.
  • And if I use them just as color
  • then I can use them like I've been using paint
  • or colored pencils, or my collage materials
  • and I can just make art with them,
  • I have an instinct for which two pieces should go next to each other to create a vibration in your eye,
  • Every piece I put down informs the next.
  • It's like a call and a response
  • a call and a response
  • a call and a response.
  • What I have learned in the process of using the Lego bricks as an art material is that they're far more versatile than I thought initially,
  • Learning all the different ways to attach and learning all the ways that you can layer
  • and build color depth has been really interesting,
  • I can build a lot of texture and structure that can be read as linear elements
  • that can be read as big color fields,
  • will launch me to a completely different audience.
  • Being at Basild has been absolutely a surreal experience.
  • I've worked so hard, so many years
  • and this has been a thing that I couldn't ever envision myself at,
  • This is a dream come true
  • to do something that you love
  • and have people recognize you for it,
  • I love you.
  • Good art has three transformations.
  • One, the artist transforming the material.
  • So, I'm trying to make these Lego bricks into something greater than their individual thing,
  • If the artist does that well
  • they're transformed in the process.
  • When you make work, you come away with something saying
  • oh, now I understand something better about myself
  • about my material, about how others receive it.
  • And using the Lego bricks as a material
  • as one of my mediums, I've expanded something in myself.
  • I've transformed.
  • The audience is the third transformation.
  • They see it and they're changed by it.
  • They walk away saying
  • oh, I'm going to go home and I'm going to look at my Lego bricks differently now,
  • I'm going to see what I can do with them.
  • I'm going to put them together in a different way.
  • Yeah, I mean, it's such a small thing.
  • It's such a small thing
  • just putting two colors
  • four colors next to each other and saying
  • like, this can be something.
  • And I feel like all the little pieces can be something
  • if they're put together,
  • It's just so cool to know that big ideas can come from small
  • tiny starts.
  • And yeah, I mean, that's like what a Lego brick is.
  • It's just, it's the start of something.
  • And that's really exciting.
