The People In Miami Are So Different From Anywhere Else I've Been In America. They're So Down To Earth, Really Friendly, And Quite Self-effacing, With A Good Sense Of Humor. I'm Not Saying Other Parts Of America Don't Have A Sense Of Humor, But Miami Maybe Has To Have A Really Good Sense Of Humor For Lots Of Different Reasons, And It Works. It Works For Me.

There Is Nothing Difficult About My Work, And People Get To Hear It From Me.

When I Have An Exhibition, I Usually Arrange It So That If People Want To, They Can Spend Two Hours There. That Way, People Who Like It Don't Feel Cheated When They Go. I Want Them To Walk Into The Exhibition Space And Look Low And At Other Levels And Angles. The Same With Emotions. I Want Them To Be Emotionally Manipulated, To Come Out Feeling Something. I Want Them To Laugh, Smile, Feel Sad. Even If They Feel Angry, That's Okay.
