david choe and sailing

I went and saw David Choe's artist talk last night at the Walker. It was a bit of a rollercoaster ride...traveling through a sketch book of ideas, art, passions, loves & history. It was the life of an artist with a taste for trouble on display...telling stories of where he's been and how he got there.

a couple of years ago I heard Ed Templeton speak and the one thing that still sticks that he said was "your ship can't come in if you don't send it out". With David last night...he straight out said "his ship has come in". and in listening to how he does everything with a devouring hunger, it had to.
