Kehinde Wiley Quotes About School

Quotes about: School

• I think that once you're able to sort of get in line with who and how you relate to the world, you'll become closer to this index that I'm referring to.

• I think that just the nature of art education in schools, it's about packs, you know? Like, we're young wolves running together, creating a consensus. And consensus is antithetical to the art process.
