Art is difficult. Its not entertainment.

I might have been born into a very literal sense of chaos, but in fact that state is true of all of us.

I am of the opinion that there are artists and non-artists. I think that this is the way it always was and always will be. I do not believe that we are in the center of the world. It is possible that there are gods who do not relate to human. As an artist, I believe that it is possible to depict these forces.

But I believe above all that I wanted to build the palace of my memory, because my memory is my only homeland.

Art maybe the only space where an indvidual can be utterly free to question himself, as well as his relationship to his God

I was interested in transcendence from a very early age. I was interested in what was over there, what was behind life. So when I had my first communion I was very disappointed. I had expected something amazing and surprising and spiritual. Instead all I got was a bicycle. That wasn't what I was after at all.

Because of my Calvinistic upbringing, I was trained to think that what you do has to have a purpose.
