In China, we don't have any contemporary art museums. Until a few years ago, we didn't even have a gallery.

You need a purpose to express yourself, but that expression is its own purpose.

I grew up in a desert, which has no kind of imagination.

I never think any place is better than others.

Cities really are mental conditions. Beijing is a nightmare. A constant nightmare.

Otherwise, I think the building can be bigger, larger, and the city can be much more crazy. The problem is the government structure is so deadly stupid, not really solving problems but creating a lot of problems itself every day.
