I was brought up Catholic, and I felt the power of art from a very young age - seeing the brutality of all those images of flayed apostles and tortured saints was a pretty strong introduction.

It's very easy to say, 'I could have done that,' after someone's done it. But I did it. You didn't. It didn't exist until I did it.

As soon as something becomes art I think you get over the fear

As a father, I would say I am more like a mother. I do a lot of hugging.

I love color. I feel it inside me. It gives me a buzz.

I realised that you couldn't use the tools of yesterday to communicate today's world. Basically, that was the big light that went on in my head.

I think money is important for everyone, because the lack of it is so painful.
