As Soon As Something Becomes Art I

I Believe All Painting And Art Should Be Uplifting For The Viewer.

Sensation Is An Element Of What I Do, And Why Not? It's Not Sensational For The Sake Of Being Sensational, But It's Sensational Art... It's Like Touching Skin.

Death's Just Something That Inspires Me, Not Something That Pulls Me Down. I Used To Get Called Morbid At School. I Have Always Loved Horror Films; I Like Being Frightened.

Buy Art, Build A Museum, Put Your Name On It, Let People In For Free. That's As Close As You Can Get To Immortality.

But I'm More Interested In Why People Are Frightened By Jaws And Why Jaws Was Such A Hit Than Saying Spielberg's My Main Influence.
