When I see my work in a gallery I often wonder how I got to this point. Sometimes the process of making the work feels like a blur, and I look at the work and wonder how I actually made it.

I love young people because they are always looking ahead, and older people because they can look back; and both make sense of the world so economically. You can learn so much from the wisdom of the young and the old. I'm just in between!

The transition into adulthood is so exciting and remarkable to witness as parent.

I look upon youth in admiration and admire them for their curiosity about the world, their shape shifting, their ideas about the future.

Sometimes I think that I stay young and in touch with contemporary culture because of my children's interests. I'm so lucky to be surrounded by their talent and vibrancy.

I wanted to make a body of work that looked at what it felt like to be a boy going through adolescence.
