Growing up, I didn't have a family of creatives. I didn't have knowledge that becoming an artist was an option. I'm not from a wealthy family, and when you come from those circumstances, doing art isn't really an option.

I'm not really a job-type person, where I go do a nine-to-give. I have to be with the work at all times and experiencing it.

I use Instagram as an online gallery to display my work. For me, it's almost more important to exist online than it is in real life.

When I get into a zone, I obsess and I don't care about anything else. I have to make the work.

Instead of collecting things and staying in one space, I want to collect experiences.

I created my own space, which was called the cave. It was a live/work space in downtown Los Angeles on 7th and Spring. When I lived there it was quite derelict. I got this massive space and half of it was my bedroom and the other half of it was the back room - no [natural] light, all fluorescent lights.

Whatever social network that comes along, whether it be Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, whatever it is, I'll use it in a creative sense to push the vision and explore the possibilities of the relationship between humans and technology.
