You can't make somebody care about what you're doing. Either they get it, either there's that connection - or they don't.

I think my parents - my parents were very hands-off, quite liberal in terms of their - they really - they did encourage me, but they never really pushed me into anything, really.

Most of the criticism of my work was pretty good, but occasionally it would not be. And I just sort of felt that they absolutely didn't get what I was doing. It was their limitations on what they thought art should be or what they thought my work should be in relation to earlier work or whatever.

I've always said my biggest influence is my, just, the last work I did, the last piece I made.

I was never that big a rock-and-roll, rock guy. I really preferred jazz, you know, that kind of thing.

Normally my head is always filled with art ideas and things that I have to do, deadlines that I have to meet.

I am good in the fact that most of my reviews have been very positive really. I get pretty good reviews. There have been some that aren't - critical. I think they are extremely - the people that wrote them really don't understand what they are looking at quite frankly or have a very preconceived notion of what conceptual art should be or where I am at or the fact that I may change what I have done from what I did 20 years ago. But there is always some reason that they just sort of get it wrong. And so it certainly doesn't affect my work.
