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.

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

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

I want to start where language ends.

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.

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

Making beautiful things for everyday use is a wonderful thing to do.. making life flow more easily.. but art confronts life, allowing it to stop and perhaps change direction.. they are completely different.
