Art Is The Expression Of Imagination, Not

One Mustn't Let Technique Be The Consciously Important Thing. It Should Be At The Service Of Expressing The Form.

I Think About Sculpture All The Time. I Work At It For Ten To Twelve Hours A Day. I Even Dream About It. If As A Result I Was Only To Produce Something That Everyone Immediately Understood I Would't Have Been Thinking Very Profoundly.

There Is A Right Physical Size For Every Idea.

I Have Always Been Very Interested In Landscape... I Find That All Natural Forms Are A Source Of Unending Interest - Tree Trunks, The Growth Of Branches From The Trunk, Each Finding Its Own Individual Air-space.

If An Artist Tries Consciously To Do Something To Others, It Is To Stretch Their Eyes, Their Thoughts, To Something They Would Not See Or Feel If The Artist Had Not Done It. To Do This, He Has To Stretch His Own First.
