As an artist, comfort can be your worst enemy.

When you're scrambling to fill the void in your life and you feel like you're drowning... we all yearn to hear that one friend's voice, say: "You're going to get through this."

In our world, it's a big deal when you have a favourite collaborator and share them.

I have a photograph of my grandfather driving a donkey cart barefoot.

I say it's a girls' world.

I'm channelling my 14-year-old self. She's thinking about putting on her big hoop earrings and baggy pants and going to the mall downtown.

There are tears. There's laughter. There's an unconscious thing happening between us as humans. There's so much about the brain that we don't understand. I believe everybody's empathic.
