Anyway I feel myself a bit on the edge on the art world, but I don't mind, I'm just pursuing my work in a very excited way. And there isn't really a mainstream anymore, is there?

I stay up nights and fiddle with my opera designs. It's a bit obsessive. That's why I can't do it all the time.

There's no-one up there in Northern Norway, food's terrible, but it's very, very beautiful to look at, if you've got eyes, and enjoy looking.

I feel 30. [Publo] Picasso said he always felt 30. Well, I do.

Britain is a very small country with a very large press.

The moment I got a very big studio, everything took off.

I was always interested in photography because it makes a picture.
