I write on a visual canvas, 'seeing' a scene in my thoughts before translating it into language, so I'm a visual junkie.

You think you know someone by looking at his face but what can one face say about the thousand thoughts behind those eyes.

I take the world very personally. I take history personally; I want to place myself in the larger context.

I will never turn to God.

I think what you can’t see is always what you should be frightened of.

You speak your mind, don't you...? A rare find in a woman.

...to make art is to realize another's sadness within, realize the hidden sadness in other people's lives, to feel sad with and for a stranger.
