I Thought I Would Call Myself A

I Thought I Would Call Myself A Pig Before The Viewer Could, So They Could Only Think More Of Me.

The Job Of The Artist Is To Make A Gesture And Really Show People What Their Potential Is. It's Not About The Object, And It's Not About The Image; It's About The Viewer. That's Where The Art Happens.

I've Always Enjoyed Feeling A Connection To The Avant-garde, Such As Dada And Surrealism And Pop Art. The Only Thing The Artist Can Do Is Be Honest With Themselves And Make The Art They Want To Make. That's What I've Always Done.

Even Before I Had Children I Wanted The Intensity Of My Life To Get Greater. I Wanted To Feel Things More Strongly. I Wanted My Intellectual Parameters To Expand. But It Comes Back To Your Own Desire To Be Engaged And To Live Up To Your Parameters.

Abstraction And Luxury Are The Guard Dogs Of The Upper Class.
