I like to combine different aspects in my work, to cover different areas, but I do see them as being separate.

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

In the studio, I don't do a lot of work that requires repetitive activity. I spend a lot of time looking and thinking and then try to find the most efficient way to get what I want, whether it's making a drawing or a sculpture, or casting plaster or whatever.

I don't like to think about being an influence. It's embarrassing.

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.

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.

Did you stop because it was good enough, or could have done more - but then maybe ruined it too? Sometimes you finish because you've gone too far.
