I still wrestle with the catharsis of acting. I donβt end up playing a lot of likable characters, so I find myself living in a lot of unlikable skin. As a result of that I donβt always feel good. I get a lot more catharsis from taking pictures or painting or making short films. You have some control. I think all artβif itβs goodβis a result of really trying to create something that you canβt put into words. Where language ends is where good art begins.
