Art suggests stuff that is traded like money, that is kept in galleries and that belongs to the elite, whereas experience is something that everybody has in the course of living.
Art is for the elite because it has a very high price-point of entry.

Galleries allow artists to stay relatively divorced from the financial aspects of their trade.

I like what I see now in China, but I think the Japanese are a step ahead into craziness and weirdness.

I don't get paid for what I do in public places. So I invest the money I earn in galleries back into doing the stuff I passionately want to do on the street.
