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.

Making drawings with text in the first place, it really was born of a desire to be economic, and to do things as simply as possible, and to do as much as I could by the most economic means.

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

The camera is an eye that sees and records the lives of filthy people. Its pictures are hung in museums and published in thick books that future generations can see how horrible life was.

I don't want to just spend my life ridiculing something that I find ridiculous, although there is an element of satire in my work.

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 don't draw every day. I tend to draw intensely during certain periods of time. I draw to amuse myself on occasion, when I am bored and drawing is the only fun to be had.
