I certainly don't see the humour in my work as something that detracts from its seriousness. It's just a way of making difficult messages more palatable.
Patricia PiccininiI think people perceive my creatures as absurd because they look different, but at the same time, they are a little bit familiar. I want people to feel a kind of empathy with them. When you think about it, all nature is kind of strange looking.. in fact, I'm a strange a looking creature.
Patricia PiccininiI am particularly interested in the way that the everyday realities of the world around us change these relations.
