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

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.

Work grows out of other work, and there are very few eureka moments

We live in a fractured world. I've always seen it as my role as an artist to attempt to make wholeness.

One doesn't make art for other people, even though I am very concerned with the viewer

I am really interested in the idea that art can reach wider, can go further, can go beyond the art world, why not? People are intelligent, people are visually intelligent, and why shouldn't the work be able to engage some of that?
