My ideas are not developed before I actually do the pieces.

People are always trying to find the next groovy thing, and it hasn't gone back to painting... I'd like it to go back to painting. I'm sick of all this photography and video. There's so much of it, it's almost annoying.

[My work is] maybe about me maybe not wanting to be me and wanting to be all these other characters. Or at least try them on.

My message for people to not take anything for granted, to respect what they might not understand.

I wanted to create something that people could relate to without having read a book about it beforehand.

The work is what it is and hopefully it's seen as feminist work, or feminist-advised work, but I'm not going to go around espousing theoretical bullshit about feminist stuff.

Some people have told me they remember the film that one of my images is derived from, but in fact I had no film in mind at all.
