I take the opportunity each day offers.

Confrontation is something that I accept as part of the project though not its purpose.

People also leave presence in a place even when they are no longer there.

Generally in New York, people just walk over you with no problem about that. Other countries, people want to resuscitate you, like, after a bit.

If I had to describe my work in one word, that word would be time.

I'm cautious about using fire. It can become theatrical. I am interested in the heat, not the flames.
