BRETT ANDERSON [SUEDE] IN SOME/THINGS ISSUE003 / FAREWELL MY CONCUBINE








MONIKA BIELSKYTE / IS JUST LIVING ENOUGH FOR YOU, OR WAS IT NECESSARY TO ‘MAKE SOMETHING’ OF YOURSELF? & IS SEEING & EXPERIENCING SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL ENOUGH IN ITSELF OR IS THERE A NECESSITY TO ENCAPSULATE IT SOMEHOW, TO CREATE SOMETHING OF IT, TO PRESERVE IT FROM BEING FORGOTTEN?

BRETT ANDERSON / a few years ago i seriously thought about retiring into a life of personal happiness. the idea of rejecting creativity did seduce me for a while. i think there's a simple, naturalistic part of me that wishes living was enough, but i think, unfortunately, my ego & the need to express myself dictate that i create too. i'm aware that the need to leave a legacy is quite an infantile concept but i also think that doing something with your life gives it some meaning & adds color & depth to its other corners. it's too easy just to intellectualiSe yourself into nothingness. without wishing to sound glib, i guess i find life, nature & art so stimulating that i need to kind of emulate those visions with my own twisted language. i suppose it's the competitive, obsessive 13 year old in me that can't just leave it alone when he senses the possibility of making something that might matter, to others, yes, but ultimately to myself.

[..]

MB / IS DIFFICULTY TO COMMUNICATE, LONELINESS OR ISOLATION SOMETHING YOU STILL HAVE TO DEAL WITH TODAY?

BA / I'm naturally not a very sociable person so i suppose i have a tendency to willingly isolate myself. i prefer the company of books to most people but do passionately love being with my family & close friends for whom i would happily die. years of being in a successful band turns people into socially retarded, emotionally crippled fools. i saw this happening to myself & predicted the lonely life that was waiting to claim me & managed to wrestle myself away from this inevitability like a dreamer struggling to wake himself from a nightmare.
i still can't do small-talk but now have the capacity not to want to go & shoot myself in the toilet in the middle of dinner parties.

SEEING BRAZIL THROUGH THE EYES OF MIGUEL RIO BRANCO








[LOCATION] The cultural context of my images is in the INSIDE— my feelings, my guts. The outside is just material, the visual material I use to articulate the emotions, the pains that I live.

[WOMAN] One of my first recurrent subjects was the female body. Looking for those images in art history was something of a search for pleasure and peace. BUT, the first time I really entered the subject of women was through the images of prostitutes in Bahia, in an old and decaying part of the city. those pictures were of women who had suffered, who had been scarred, yet were still able to laugh at their destiny of pain. their dignity was that of raped women, who are survivors. They are raped as is mother earth, who continues to always bear children. No matter how difficult it is to believe— there is always a future.

[BOXERS] There is this place where all kinds of people mix—crooks, policemen, prostitutes, old decaying men… Boxers are an essay on the fading masculine body & my own fading away. It is about TIME.











[Previously unpublished images by MIGUEL RIO BRANCO as well as some words which we exchanged during several months of discussions working on his 22-page feature in SOME/THINGS MAGAZINE ISSUE003 / FAREWELL MY CONCUBINE
