I don't necessarily think that installation is the only way to go. It's just a label for certain kinds of arrangements.

I want people to be drawn into the space of the work. And a lot of people are like me in that they have relatively short attention spans. So I shoot for the window of opportunity.

I'm an artist who works with pictures and words. Sometimes that stuff ends up in different kinds of sites and contexts which determine what it means and looks like.

I've always thought that it's good to watch the news to find out what everybody else is looking at and believing, if only because that's how consensus is constructed.

I'd always been a news junkie, always read lots of newspapers and watched the Sunday morning news shows on TV and felt strongly about issues of power, control, sexuality and race.

What makes the production of my work so expensive? The whole installation thing - the construction, the objects, the technology. It really adds up.

Do you know why language manifests itself the way it does in my work? It's because I understand short attention spans.
