“I'm interested in confronting police brutality and police abuse of cracking down on street performers and street artists, but also in valorizing street art as legitimate performance within the artistic sphere, where it's so often conflated with pan-handling and begging and not "successful" art. I want to change laws around street performance.” WantArtLawArtistSuccessfulStreetsPerformancesAbusePoliceArtisticPerformersSpheresPolice BrutalityBrutalityBeggingConfrontingStreet ArtStreet Performers Author:Kalan Sherrard
“I like street performance because it's garbage time. The subway is garbage time: no one can say I'm wasting their time because they've already thrown that time into the subway. If they don't want to see me they can go to the other end of the platform. But on the street I do feel this disgust towards the audience: why would you waste your time looking at me? Why are you being so respectful of me? You should attack me.” IfsWantFeelsShouldEndsAudienceStreetsWastePerformancesThrownPlatformsDisgustingGarbageRespectfulSubway Author:Kalan Sherrard
“Not being categorized is like keeping your mouth shut. Categorization is linguistic, people trying to understand each other. Words are misty, language is a fog. I want to be in as many boxes as possible, describe myself as thickly as possible.” PeopleWantTryingLanguageMouthsBoxesFogMistyDescribe MyselfCategorizationKeeping Your Mouth Shut Author:Kalan Sherrard
