I've always said that to make movies, to make images and sound, is possible by one way or another. And it has not to be ruled by the Pharaohs of Egypt, the Pharaohs from Hollywood or wherever. I have tried very hard to make even a small budget picture here. It always fails. Over a dozen times. And now I know why. It was only because I wanted to be in control of the money. To spend it the way I wanted.

Even with painting, even abstract paintings, you need the incoming of, light on the canvas.

I don't think I've succeeded in making any really good films. There are moments, scenes, whole movements that sing. It has all added up to a cinema of sorts, even though I'm still learning my art.

Cinema teaches us about the human body and how we look at things.

"Away, away," says hate. "Closer, closer," says love.

TV has nothing to do with painting. It's just transmission.

When I have a low budget I always try to make it a lesson in economy.
