I don't connect accessibility with lowest common denominator.

I am particularly interested in the way that the everyday realities of the world around us change these relations.

The idea that we can have a new life form, what does it say about the zoo's main purpose, which is to preserve life? What does it say when the artificial and real animal can have the same attraction to people?

We did have one work where it looked like the fibreglass was discolouring, but it turned out it was reacting to the foam it was packed against in storage. We repaired it and sent it back with better packing.

We always use resin instead of polyurethane, even though it takes more work and is in places where it can't be seen, because resin tends to be more UV stable than urethane.

Most of the work I make uses materials that are a bit outside of the traditional fine art world.

Materials are very important to me, and always have been.
