I'm not pretending to be somebody who's got really limited craft skills. I just am a person who's got really limited craft skills.

If the work jells a little bit in terms of being placed in the oeuvre, I don't care - as long as it works.

I think the thing is there's a work for every space, you always have to respond to a context, whether it be a physical context, or a political one, or a cultural one, whatever.

I never sat down and decided to make work about life and death. It just all comes out of my head like water pouring out of a jug.

I am a serious artist in my own right, in the sense that I've spent my entire life being an artist and trying to be an artist and making work.

I guess I just always want to surprise myself and say something that I'm not really quite sure where it came from, and it sort of makes sense and has a kind of profundity to it. Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't.

I'm never really that worried about doing something a little different, 'cause it always just seems to fit into what I want to do.
