Being An Artist Is Not Easy -

First Of All, To Do Performance Art, You Really Have To Give 100 Percent. I Only Know That I Have To Give 100 Percent And Then What Happens, Happens.

My Work Is Immaterial. It's Not Painting, It's Not Sculpture, It's Emotions. I'm Giving You Something To Experience Yourself.

We Wanted To Prove That I Am Not Just A Provocateur, As The Television Said [referring To A Fox News Clip Shown In The Film]. It's Challenging, But It's Not Just Challenging.

Television Is Completely Another Medium. For Me, Lady Gaga And Hbo Are Bringing Us To Mass Culture.

The Experience I Learned Was That … If You Leave Decision To The Public, You Can Be Killed… I Felt Really Violated: They Cut My Clothes, Stuck Rose Thorns In My Stomach, One Person Aimed The Gun At My Head, And Another Took It Away. It Created An Aggressive Atmosphere. After Exactly 6 Hours, As Planned, I Stood Up And Started Walking Toward The Public. Everyone Ran Away, Escaping An Actual Confrontation.
