It’s terrifying putting art out there. I’m confident in my abilities but I feel like i let fear of mediocrity dictate what I do and don’t post. Every little detail has to be perfect or else it’s bad and worthless type beat. Its an irrational thought process but a realistic one nonetheless.

It's an ever-moving target of puritanical/capitalist design that makes you doubt yourself and is stopping you from following through on your dreams. Putting your weird, imperfect self out into the world is more important than being stuck worrying about that last 5%

At least it’s out there. I get so caught up in my heart being in it’s most perfect form but if I could actually access that impossibility I wouldn’t grow from the process. Basic I know, but its good to be reminded of.

just had an epiphany about how everyone seeks something different from art, how we all perceive it based on who we are as individuals … for the longest time in art/film school i’ve been scared to pursue the art i want out of fear that it will turn out very bad.
but i hope we make art anyway despite that fear, as long as it sustains ourselves and the people who matter. i hope we all get to freely make “bad ” art 🫂

Poem I wrote a bit ago when I was loathing LOL🕺
~~~~~~~
Im spectating myself,
on the screen distorted and displaced
I’m half rendered,
crude and unfinished
his hands repeat the same motions
playing a mortal game with himself
entranced by a saccharine glow
his body corrupts and transmutes into thread and dead skin
it’s silken fingers clutching and restraining his appendages
he stares at me, with deliverance inscribed in his pupils
I’m a doll in its embrace
I don’t want to leave its breast
but I know I’ll wake up tomorrow with concrete in my lungs and ribs of rebar.
