It is a depressing business talking to journalist.

Art is the means by which we communicate what it feels like to be alive - in the past, that was mixed up with other illustrative duties, but that was still its central function that has been liberated in the art called modern.

Our appearance belongs to others, we live in the darkness of the body-part of all darkness but felt.

Art is not about objects of high monetary exchange. It's about reasserting our firsthand experience in present time.

We're not on a journey to a goal, the goal is with us changing with us.

I always like to look for adventure when I go away. I have gone on several horse adventures with my wife - from Guangxi we went up to the High Tibetan region. We also went along the Hurunui River on horseback in the South Island of New Zealand.
