Take an object. Do something to it. Do something else to it.

To be an artist you have to give up everything, including the desire to be a good artist.

I decided that if my work contained what I could identify as a likeness to other work, I would remove it.

I have no ideas about what the paintings imply about the world. I don't think that's a painter's business. He just paints paintings without a conscious reason.

I feel that works of art are an opportunity for people to construct meaning, so I don't usually tell what they mean. It conveys to people that they have to participate.

I never wish for critics.

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.
