A sculpture is just a painting cut out and stood up somewhere.

It's hard to say that my twenties were the most miserable time in my life or that my first wife drove me crazy or that I hated the job that I had. You can say all of those things. But for the most part, people manage to have a good time when they're that age.

The aim of art is to create space.

I don't like to say I have given my life to art. I prefer to say art has given me my life.

Making art is complicated because the categories are always changing. You just have to make your own art, and whatever categories it falls into will come later.

Architecture can't fully represent the chaos and turmoil that are part of the human personality, but you need to put some of that turmoil into the architecture, or it isn't real.

Any artist can't get away from the way the world works, which is that it wants to know what you did, and you're only interested in what you're doing right now.
