I feel the symbolic world is the nub of a problem for an artist
If you get a bad review, you take that in your stride.
Being an artist is a very long game. It is not a 10-year game. I hope I'll be around making art when I'm 80
Artists don't make objects. Artists make mythologies.
Red is a colour I've felt very strongly about. Maybe red is a very Indian colour, maybe it's one of those things that I grew up with and recognise at some other level.
I don't want to have anything to say, it just gets in the way. I think the journey of an artist is a journey of discovery and some engagements with paint, with the nature of material, with bodily things...One wants to open the story, not close it.
