It is a depressing business talking to journalist.

Art is not about understanding, it’s about experience.

The elemental world we all live in is the darkness of the body.

Art has to change things, and if it was immediately acceptable it would not be doing the job.

I was educated by monks - I thank them dearly for the education they gave me, but I am no longer a Catholic.

I have to say that I reject somewhat the distinction between something called art and something called public art. I think all art demands and desires to be seen.

We are not moving towards some kind of goal. We are at the goal, and it is changing with us. If art has any purpose, it is to open our eyes to that fact.
