Sometimes You Need To Stop Doing Something

It's Art That's Taught Me To Think And To Write.

One Of The Beauties Of Art Is That It Reflects An Artist's Entire Life. What I've Learned Over The Past 30 Years Is Really Beginning To Inform What I Make. I Hope That Process Continues Until I Die.

There's A Huge Number Of Things That Are Occurring With The Ice Works Which Fascinate Me Enormously, But It's Driven By This Kind Of Frantic Race Against Time. And Whilst That Creates A Huge Amount Of Tension And Problems, It's A Tension That I Think I Feed Off.

When I Was At Art School, A Lot Of Art Education Is About Art Being A Means Of Self-expression, And As An 18-year-old I Didn't Know If I Had A Huge Amount I Wanted To Express. It Was A Big Moment When I Decided I Wanted To Shift The Emphasis Or The Intention Of My Art From Something I Disgorged Myself Upon And Something That Actually Fed Me Or Made Me See The World Or Understand The World.
