So at a time in which the media give the public everything it wants and desires, maybe art should adopt a much more aggressive attitude towards the public. I myself am very much inclined to take this position.

I'm interested in conflict and confrontation.

Architecture is involved with the world, but at the same time it has a certain autonomy. This autonomy cannot be explained in terms of traditional logic because the most interesting parts of the work are non-verbal. They operate within the terms of the work, like any art.

Our idea of nature is increasingly being determined by scientific developments. And they have become decisive for our image of reality.

Descriptions of my work depress me. They make me feel pinned down.

I've learned that in order to achieve what I wanted, it made more sense to negotiate than to defend the autonomy of my work by pounding my fist on the table.

For me the meaning of my work is much more fluid.
