I was never that interested in movies. I was interested in them as a thing, but I didn't want to make movies. I always wanted to draw and paint.

It's all one to me: opera, painting, drawing, faxes.

Drawing is rather like playing chess: your mind races ahead of the moves that you eventually make.

Photographs aren't accounts of scrutiny. The shutter is open for a fraction of a second.

The cameras are getting smaller, they're getting more versatile, and eventually, I'm sure you'll have a camera with lots and lots of things on it so you can alter the picture. You could alter perspective.

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

I'm convinced that technology and art go together - and always have, for centuries.
