We spoke to him from his home studio in New York about Chris in Chicago on set for FX's The Bear, Matty Matheson ordering a fifty-piece nigiri set at Nobu, the origins of Roe's name, growing up in the south, seeing Pavements first show in Atlanta, sweaters over a collared shirt, the unique sequencing of his work, InDesign>Quark, falling ass first into artistic photography, the 1990's refrigerator, losing weight by quitting alcohol, his boyish good looks, how to pull off flip flops with socks, some Gagosian stories, and we help sell some pieces from his Roe by Roe Etheridge collection. instagram.com/roeethridge twitter.com/donetodeath twitter.com/themjeans Learn more about your ad choices.

0:00.0	And the How long gone, uh, Chris Black coming to you live from Chris Storer's office on the set of the
0:27.1	Bear season 2 in Chicago. I have my feet kicked up I'm disrespecting his
0:32.0	property and you know it feels good to be in
0:36.3	like a real office setting with lots of people kind of running around Jason.
0:40.3	Yeah let me paint a picture we We got storyboards behind you.
0:43.2	Could you explain what that is exactly and what episode, what season, and what...
0:48.2	Yeah, so I've been here for, I've been here for like 48 hours. I had to meet with with Chris and his partners on some other stuff but they were shooting so I got to see I got to go to set today and kind of see them at work and you know I've been with these guys we went to dinner last night you know the whole thing and they haven't given me one iota of plot it's incredible how they talk around it they've given me nothing stars, no plot twists, no idea of what's happening.

2:10.2	It's not like he's the fucking guy driving me home you know I'm the sprinter right so I think
