In painting I try to make some logic out of the world that has been given to me in chaos. I have a very pretentious idea that I want to make life, I want to make sense out of it. The fact that I am doomed to failure - that doesn't deter me in the least.

I don't mind being miserable as long as I'm painting well.

Now as before it is the vulgar and the vital and the possibility of its transformation into the beautiful which continues to challenge and fascinate me.

I cannot expect even my own art to provide all of the answers, only to hope it keeps asking the right questions.

If you're an extraordinarily gifted woman, the door is open. What women are fighting for is the right to be as mediocre as men.

I didn't choose painting, it chose me.I didn't have a talent,i just had genius

Somehow, in painting I try to make some logic out of the world that has been given to me in chaos.
