When you are older, you realise that everything else is just nothing compared to painting and drawing.

We live in an age where the artist is forgotten. He is a researcher. I see myself that way.

Water in swimming pools changes its look more than in any other form its colour can be man-made and its dancing rhythms reflect not only the sky but, because of its transparency, the depth of the water as well. If the water surface is almost still and there is a strong sun, then dancing lines with the colours of the spectrum appear everywhere.

Cubism was an attack on the perspective that had been known and used for 500 years. It was the first big, big change. It confused people: they said, 'Things don't look like that!'

I've never been interested in, much in the politics of the art world, it doesn't interest me.

It takes a long time to make it simple.

The thing with high-tech is that you always end up using scissors.
