ID: A roundup of quotes from an interview with artist and actor Yvan Loiseau that read...
Slide 1: “I feel close to burn out every time I do a project. My work’s hard. There’s a lot of coordination and management of people I don’t know well. But the more of these projects I do, the more I learn about taking care of myself.”
Slide 2: "But it’s a hard balance—I want to feel alive, I want to have a real impact on the lives of others so I give 100%. I want to investigate how we can achieve more togetherness, how the participants can feel happier by being part of an art project, and how they will feel a part of it and not just feel like spectators.”
Slide 3: “I spend a lot of time meeting people again and again. I literally open the work process up. I tell them they can add their own things into the project. I’m not the one deciding what will go into the project or not. We do it as a collective.”
Slide 4: “I manage to avoid burnout because of the happiness others feel through the projects, seeing their smiles, seeing how happy they are at accomplishing something together.”
Slide 5: “There are always a handful of people who are so involved in the project, they make the project theirs, it becomes our project and not my project. And all the friendships that are created give me energy.”
