The spider is an animal who eats mosquitoes. That's why I love the spider - it is the only way we have to deal with these insects.

For me, sculpture is the body. My body is my sculpture.

Don't get the green disease of envy. Don't be fooled by success and money. Don't let anything come between you and your work.

To be an artist, you need to exist in a world of silence.

My childhood has never lost its magic, it has never lost its mystery, and it has never lost its drama.

My work disturbs people and nobody wants to be disturbed. They are not fully aware of the effect my work has on them, but they know it is disturbing.

Sometimes it is necessary to make a confrontation-and I like that.
