I like contrasting between black and white and color.

And yes, there are things I want to keep, that I like around me - especially when there's very little left. I just want to keep those little bits of reminders of my past. There are certain drawings from the '60s; certain little paintings from the '60s that I keep.

I always took photographs. I photographed a lot of trees, by the way, which is another image I used often in my work, the tree image.

Words are objects of a color and a size and a form and a shape.

Developing your own style became something very interesting, very important to me.

I was a filmmaker. I made movies. I made films. And I always took photos and made films, always from the beginning.
