Visual Arts

No more parties in Hong Kong, please.
No more artist residencies in Romania.
No more painting.
I can’t concentrate.
I’d rather play music first.
I’d rather party first.
I’d rather be a teacher first.
I’d rather do the dishes first.
I don’t need a flat.
(My flat burned down.)
I don’t need a home.
(I am homeless.)
I don’t need friends.
(I need followers.)
I don’t need conversations.
(I need likes.)
Espen Cook is bored.
Espen Cook is lost.
Espen Cook is dead.
