As one gets older one sees many more paths that could be taken. Artists sense within their own work that kind of swelling of possibilities, which may seem a freedom or a confusion.

The thing is, if you believe in the unconscious - and I do - there's room for all kinds of possibilities that I don't know how you prove one way or another.

Generally, I am opposed to painting which is concerned with conceptions of simplicity. Everything looks busy to me.

Cubism is an anatomical chart of a way of seeing external objects. But I want to confuse the meaning of the act of looking.

One works without thinking how to work.

To do a drawing for a painting most often means doing something very sketchy and schematic and then later making it polished.

One wants one's work to be the world, but of course it's never the world. The work is in the world; it never contains the whole thing.
