Each Person Has A Literature Inside Them. But When People Lose Language, When They Have To Experiment With Putting Their Thoughts Together On The Spot-that's What I Love Most. That's Where Character Lives.

My Work Is About Giving Voice To The Unheard, And Reiterating The Voice Of The Heard In Such A Way That You Question, Or Re-examine, What Is The Truth.

Some People Study A Text Very Deeply. The People Are My Text. I Study Their Words And What Their Words Sound Like, Over And Over Again. When I Was A Kid, My Grandfather Said That "if You Say A Word Often Enough, It Becomes You." Thinking Of That Later In Life Gave Me This Idea That I Could Try To Become America By Learning The Words Of People From Many Aspects Of The Country. It Doesn't Matter How Educated They Are. By Living In The World And Living Their Experiences, They Bring Extraordinary Truths. I Try To Do Those Truths Justice.
