Art is about profundity. It's about connecting to everything that it means to be alive, but you have to act.

A lot of my work is about sales. And it was about being independent from the art market.

I enjoy all mediums, and I have to say, music is the medium that first made me understand how powerful art could be.

I want my work to be accessible to people.

I spend much more time looking at art history and at different references to art than I do at actual objects.

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.

I don't think irony is about judgment; I think irony is something like, "Oh, that's interesting," because it's not something I think one starts off to achieve. I think it's just something that presents itself. And if it does, I find it's usually optimistic, not negative in its terms.
