But do so because art is a vocation, because it is a human act, because it is an empathy machine. Not because you feel beholden to the capitalist professionalization of the art world. You are beholden only to your art and your community and to the building of a better world.

But if you’re an artist, just remember, please — your humanity comes before your career, always. If you need time to rest, to organize, to gather facts, to fight, take that time. If creating is what helps you do these things, keep creating!

This is not AT ALL to say that art itself is a distraction. The only things keeping me half functional right now are novels, poetry, paintings, and sculptures. I’m so grateful for everyone who is able to keep creating, and I hope the images of my older work are helpful for some, as well.
