I'm surprised when the work appears beautiful, and very pleased. And I think work can be very good and very successful without being able to call it beautiful, although I'm not clear about that. The work is good when it has a certain completeness; and when it's got a certain completeness, then it's beautiful.

Pete and Repeat were sitting on a wall. Pete fell off. Who was left? Repeat.

If you choose the wrong questions and you proceed, you still get a result, but it's not interesting.

And the part about being a professional artist is that you can tell, and you can do it over again, even if you can't say how you got there exactly.

My videos always involve some idea of a human being in a unusual situation-and what happens.

I like to use my hands and make things... It might seem pretty stupid or pointless but that doesn't matter... some of the most interesting work is the stuff that starts like that - out of a raw need for activity.

What I am really concerned about is what art is supposed to be - and can become.
