When I was young, it was an exciting time to be in New York.

Source of inspiration. The MAK is a museum that has had a profound effect on me as an artist and art viewer.

It is very different when you age. The things that are significant, or what drives you, or the physical experience of being driven, changes over time.

I've been very lucky being in New York. While there are many things that have impacted my life, I have been able to stay here and do my own work.

I like that feeling when you’re making art, that you’re taking the energy out of your body and putting it into a physical object. I like things that are labor-intensive : you make a little thing and another little thing and another little thing, and eventually you see a possibility.

Life really changes. And it gets lighter, for the most part. You tolerate yourself and others better.

I think a lot of making art is listening to yourself.
