The “FREE ART FREES ART” model is a brilliant hack around the gatekeeping problem. You’re right that commercial galleries care more about marketability than real quality — HECKEL’S HORSE JR. That kind of creative liberation , skipping all that bureaucracy , is what makes art movements interesting . The mask paintings have that primal, unrefined energy that galleries usually try to “fix” until they are unrecognizable. It’s also smart to plan on recording the trial-and-error process — the mistakes are as valuable as the successes for other artists trying to replicate this. And that poem at Speakers Corner is just pure gold. It is a smart, unpretentious analogy to the barriers in the art market to Brexit. See you in Pattaya mate. Bring on the masks.
