[00:00:04.583]We're making artists, sure,
[00:00:07.333]but more than anything we're making people to become
[00:00:10.291]problem solvers
[00:00:11.916]and that goes across the board.
[00:00:13.833]I also tell sometimes students like
[00:00:15.250]your voice is what makes you a special thing.
[00:00:19.500]So I think to me is like what you need to say is what is important
[00:00:23.083]and then as a faculty in this department
[00:00:25.833]we cultivate students to create their own voice.
[00:00:29.041]This is the ultimate goal for a faculty in a research one institution
[00:00:34.125]to be a role model for students.
[00:00:36.291]We need to make sure the faculty have the caliber to be role models for students coming through.
[00:00:43.625]A lot of people refer to the Venice Biennale like the Olympics for the Arts
[00:00:47.250]and I say yeah it's very special to be part of it.
[00:00:50.666]So when I received the call
[00:00:52.208]yes of course I will participate and
[00:00:54.250]yeah the work is strong the work is good
[00:00:56.375]but the support and the love
[00:00:58.666]and the structure is such an immense addition to the whole thing
[00:01:03.625]So when I tell students I know it takes time to make drawings,
[00:01:07.250]I really mean it because I am there with them.
