I believe that beauty is a basic service.

The reason artists want to have works in museums is that we want our works to be seen by as many people as possible and we want our ideas to be understood in more complicated ways.

I'm not a preacher, but I preach. I'm not a Buddhist, but I chant. I'm not race theorist, but I have questions and ponderances around the complexities of race and class and culture wherever I am.

What I think museums do very well is that they say to a public, "We have some stuff that's worth looking at."

All kinds of performance practices have a certain register of power or solemnity.

I believe that beauty is a basic service.

Sometimes the creating that we do is creating a platform that allows other creative people to pitch in.
