I Think A Lot Of Making Art

I've Been Very Lucky Being In New York. While There Are Many Things That Have Impacted My Life, I Have Been Able To Stay Here And Do My Own Work.

I'm Reminded Of The Arm, And The Body, And The Appendage.

It’s One Of My Loose Theories That Catholicism And Art Have Gone Well Together Because Both Believe In The Physical Manifestation Of The Spiritual World.

It Was A Very Economically Depressed Time [the 80s] And Because Of That, There Was A Lot Of Space. Everything Was Relatively Dilapidated, And One Could Live On A Pretty Low Income. One Could Live Well Below The Poverty Line And Not Suffer Immensely.

I Like That Feeling When You’re Making Art, That You’re Taking The Energy Out Of Your Body And Putting It Into A Physical Object. I Like Things That Are Labor-intensive : You Make A Little Thing And Another Little Thing And Another Little Thing, And Eventually You See A Possibility.
