Maps are essential. Planning a journey without a map is like building a house without drawings.

Maps encourage boldness. They're like cryptic love letters. They make anything seem possible.

Wanderlust is incurable.

Once I have the finished sculpture, I’ll put it out on the street or in nature or somewhere where it interacts with the environment. Really it’s kind of the idea of turning the street into a stage and this sort of urban theater has a life of its own. If you have creative drive, and you need to manifest it, then you need some sort of medium to do that through. For me, it worked out with sculpture, and tape just is a means of doing sculpture.

Give your kids responsibility. Once outside, let them lead, who cares if you get lost; it might be the best trip you've ever had.
