I really love printmaking. It’s like a mystery and you’re trying to figure out how to rein it in.

I'm peripheral in Colab's history because others were involved in media, filmmaking, and music, and I was always a studio artist.

I like Betsy Ross as a model, too, the quilting bee, sitting around with your friends making art, asking what they think, so that you get the benefit of everyone's opinions and so it's not just about you in your you-dom.

Many people don't have relationships to their siblings in adulthood, or they have superficial ones. It's sort of unfashionable, particularly in America, to be close to your family.

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

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 is much larger than how we image it, always, but society can be constricting in ways.
