I'm trying to deal with ideas about histories, fame, hearsay, and how public identities are constructed.

I've always been very tied to language.

Direct address has been a consistent tactic in my work, regardless of the medium that I'm working in.

Warhol's images made sense to me, although I knew nothing at the time of his background in commercial art. To be honest, I didn't think about him a hell of a lot.

Fashion is everywhere and about everything. It is folly, vanity and the fun of it all. It is disguise, innuendo, and cunning. It is mean, gorgeous and ambitious, and definitely the last word for the next few seconds.

You want it, you buy it, you forget it.

I think what I'm trying to do is create moments of recognition. To try to detonate some kind of feeling or understanding of lived experience.
