“I am a complicated animal. living in the subconscious, trying to be conscious … I am complicated, so it’s ok… it’s ok that there is a lot of fucking free strokes coming from feeling — some kind of feeling the free strokes and the movements are pure feeling — the subconscious — this is where you let yourself free.”
Franz Klainsek Finds Faith in the Present Moment
““PRAY” is the artist’s prayer to the world as he questions, “we were programmed to pray to an outside source. But what about a prayer to ourselves? A prayer to our Being? To where we’ve been, where we are, where we are going–to our journey? A prayer to respect and honor ourselves. The road we have traveled. The miles we have walked. The lessons we’ve earned. However light or dark, the truth is we are magnificent. And deserve to be pedestalled as a champion of champions.”
