I'm no mechanic but I can change my oil and I know what to do when I get a flat tire and I can hot-wire it in an emergency.

I've always been a private person and I've always valued my private life.

I love things that have a vintage feel to them, just because there's a certain texture to them that we just don't have anymore. In fact I think I've been stuck in the 50s or 60s for a while...

His work is very visceral, and you can take from it what you want, in various moments of your life.
