Artists live in unknown spaces and give themselves over to following something unknown.

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.

Artists live in unknown spaces and give themselves over to following something unknown.

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.

One hopes that each piece contains enough space for several narratives.

It was a very economically depressed time [the 80s] and because of that, there was a lot of space. Everything was relatively dilapidated, and one could live on a pretty low income. One could live well below the poverty line and not suffer immensely.

Life changes a lot. I guarantee you.
