O’lala : “I choose my top 5, based on my personal preferences. My answers are as personal and expressive as I am in my artworks. I just will say the things that are related to the feelings that I took from those artworks.”

 

Sarah Lucas – Eating A Banana ( Revisited ), 1990 – 2017

Sarah Lucas , “eating a banana”  shows a nice sexual feeling then I have this in my mind “I wish the dicks were as delicious as bananas“.

 

Tracey Emin – I’ve Got It All, 2000

Tracey Emin, “I’ve got it all”, it’s a wish for me, it takes me to my dreams of how can I be rich and sexy and artist at the same time, also to one of my memories when I had a conversation with a prostitute in my bed and I asked her if she loves her job and she told me: ”I hate it but I want to save my income to buy my own apartment since my colleague could buy one by working even less hours than me.”

 

Mike Kelly – Little Friend, 2007

I need to keep my best friends in a box forever while she/he cannot speak to me anymore. I would keep it on the shelf of my room just to be sure that it is just mine.

 

Tracey Emin – Sometimes I Feel Beautiful, 2000

This is me when I am dead.

 

Nan Goldin, – Jimmy Paulette on David’s Bike, 1991

Nan Goldin, “Jimmy Paulette on David’s Bike” , this reminds me of my talented friend Maurice Nuiten who showed me Nan Goldin works for the first time and I felt I have missed something worthy till now in my life that I had never seen her works before, how people can be related to each other without knowing for so long, this time I see him I ll party with him all the night like the feeling that I get from this photo and then will put him in the fancy box of “little friend” by Mike Kelly and would keep it for my own forever.
