Art has more ego to it than what I do.

My work is very bodily. It's not a shell, but a body.

I never wanted to do something grotesque. I never wanted to shock. I wanted my audience to be happy, to be kind.

Men have no concept of how to design things for the home. Women should design the things they use.

I made the things particularly because I wanted them to see the world.

If I hadn't been a designer, I'd have been a painter. I began as a painter and learned the craft of pottery in order to support myself.

When I design something, I think of it as a gift to somebody else.
