Abstract expressionism meets spaceship aliens
2005
Overview
TB: The idea of a space drama kind of got me through the '70s and '80s. I always felt that today would be the day they'd push the button, and Star Wars and Tolkien and Dungeons and Dragons gave me some escapism. That was my religion. Those mythologies meant so much to me, and reanalysing it now, I think I was pretty affected by the times. I was always listening for sirens. And I was pretty bitter towards the powers-that-be, holding us hostage with their vain politics and ability to destroy the world. But having shunned that when I became a high artist and fool, I was becoming bored with that, so melting the two together was exciting! I thought, it's hilarious! TB: Yeah! I'm playing bass with Columbus, and the Little Baby Cupcakes are on the back burner, but it's still on the stove. And I sometimes write my own stuff. It's a good way to get away from the visual. After this show, I'm not going to draw or paint for a while. Varnishing kills a lot of brain cells, and since I'm using oil pastels, I have to use the nastiest, most toxic varnish out there. But I'm gonna be OK. I'll just burn it off with beer.
