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.

One night I dreamed that I painted a large American flag, and the next morning I got up and I went out and bought the materials to begin it.

My experience with life is that it's very fragmented. In one place certain kinds of thing occur, and in another place a different kind of thing occurs. I would like my work to have some vivid indication of those differences. I guess, in painting, it would amount to different kinds of space being represented in it.

One likes to think that one anticipates changes in the spaces we inhabit, and our ideas about space.

I don't know how to organise thoughts. I don't know how to have thoughts.

I think that one wants from a painting a sense of life. The final suggestion, the final statement, has to be not a deliberate statement but a helpless statement. It has to be what you can't avoid saying.

Art is either a complaint or appeasement.
