Hanna Liden is my all-time favorite artist at the moment because when I went up to her studio to do this interview she had cold beer for me to drink! Out of all the people I interviewed she was the only one who offered me refreshments. I vaguely remember a cup of tea being waved in my face at some point by somebody, but Hanna was the only one who really understood me and my needs as a pioneer of new, new, new journalism. Plus she’s the daughter that Ozzy should’ve had. Cheers.

Vice: So you been to this Art Basel thing before?Hanna Liden:Yeah.What’s the best part of going down there?The weather, the climate, that is really the best thing. It can be fun to be out of context with all these people, it takes everything to a different level. The parties can be fun.What part totally sucks?The fair.The actual fair?Yeah, Miami Basel. I don’t like art fairs, it’s for dealers and collectors, it’s not for artists, you know? Last time I was there, I didn’t even go to the fair.
