When people make judgments they close all the possibility around them.

If I physically made every work myself, I would get only one or two paintings done a year, if that.

The job of the artist is to make a gesture and really show people what their potential is. It's not about the object, and it's not about the image; it's about the viewer. That's where the art happens.

I'm interested in power. I'm interested in the kind of polarities and equilibriums that take place within sexuality and philosophy and sociology. So in Versailles, in this type of setting, you have a place that is about absolute control, where everything has been thought about.

My favorite activity is to be with my family.

I'd have to say I've become more aware of my communal responsibility.

The moment we live in is a great time to make art. We have different technologies to play with, and we're left with the opportunity to focus on our work.
