Some Sam Taylor-Wood's quotes. Goto "Sam Taylor-Wood's quotation" section for more.I struggle if I have chaos around me, but at the same time, if I don't have it, I'm uncomfortable. It's a strange thing: If I don't have chaos, I create it.
Tags: Strange, Struggle, TimeI understand what it is to go through emotional trauma and retreat and go into the world of your imagination. I understand how art and music can be a place of safety in a world of reinvention.
Tags: Art, Emotional, MusicI went to Goldsmith College of Art in London in the '80s and there I made sculptures, but the objects had nothing to do with how I was thinking. I was making beautifully sanded wooden boxes!
Tags: Art, College, ThinkingI'm interested in taking raw human emotions and then isolating them without any narrative structure. In order to achieve this, I try to break out of the narrative conventions that you'd see in a typical feature film.
Tags: Film, Human, TryI've been through plenty in my life where I've really had to focus on the day ahead... because, as I know, the future is, you know, whatever the future is... Once you've stared mortality that hard in the face, you really seize the day.
Tags: Focus, Future, LifeMoney scares me, and it always has done. I've got a childish concept of money, and I like to keep it that way in the sense that I don't like to think about it.
Tags: Done, Money, SenseMy mum has lived in Australia for 22 years now, and we have a rocky relationship. But at the same time it's one I want to maintain. I need her to be my mum. The relationship took a lot of rebuilding.
Tags: Her, Time, TookMy work is made on lines similar to those of a film production. A lot of my work is kind of bureaucratic, endlessly phoning up people, trying to find the cameraman and the lighting man, because I am a total technology-phobe, quite helpless with equipment.
Tags: Film, Trying, WorkWhen you're no longer ill, and everyone's gotten over the fact that you've had cancer, that core of steel doesn't go away, and then I had to find other channels for it.
Tags: Away, Everyone, FactI felt giving birth was the most creative act of all my creative acts - literally creation!
Tags: Act, Creative, GivingI find that I put my body in my work when I am at a particularly difficult or joyous point because I want to feel that moment.
Tags: Moment, Put, WorkI love karaoke. I love maudlin country ballads. In another life, I'd be Loretta Lynn.
Tags: Country, Life, LoveI never thought of having cancer as something that was unfair. I just braced myself and tried to get through it.
Tags: Cancer, Thought, UnfairI often joke that I straddle psychosis and neurosis, and that being an artist keeps me in the middle, so I can work between the two.
Tags: Between, Often, WorkI remember as a kid not ever wanting to have friends around to my house because it was, for want of a better description, disheveled.
