I'm not a person - and my wife also - we don't really go to the beach or anything like that. We go to cities.

I make my own surprises and I'm always surprised to see what I do, to see it when it's finished and the biggest challenge is once I finish it, it's not a failure. It's not a flop.

I usually, if I give a talk, I don't usually prepare anything. I just say - you know, I may stop talking by showing some video or slides of what I do but mainly I try to respond to what problems people have with my work.

ne thing you have to develop as an artist is a confidence in what you're doing and that you're right about it.

I certainly don't believe that people can read other people's minds.

But artistically, my art I kept very separate from my political beliefs, deliberately and very, very rarely would I allow that kind of thing into it.
