In Every Culture, [there Are Those] Shamans

From The Moment You Are Born, You Could Die. I Think As An Artist It Is Important To Meditate On That.

The Brother Of My Grandfather Was The Patriarch Of The Orthodox Church And Revered As A Saint. So Everything In My Childhood Is About Total Sacrifice, Whether To Religion Or To Communism. This Is What Is Engraved On Me. This Is Why I Have This Insane Willpower. My Body Is Now Beginning To Be Falling Apart, But I Will Do It To The End. I Don't Care. With Me It Is About Whatever It Takes.

The Public Is In Need Of Experiences That Are Not Just Voyeuristic. Our Society Is In A Mess Of Losing Its Spiritual Centre.

You See, What Is My Purpose Of Performance Artist Is To Stage Certain Difficulties And Stage The Fear The Primordial Fear Of Pain, Of Dying, All Of Which We Have In Our Lives, And Then Stage Them In Front Of Audience And Go Through Them And Tell The Audience, I'm Your Mirror; If I Can Do This In My Life, You Can Do It In Yours.

I Realise The Power Of Art That Does Not Hang On The Walls Of Galleries.
