When I Do Work, I Get So

Believing In One’s Own Art Becomes Harder And Harder When The Public Response Grows Fonder.

Early In My Career, A Critic Said That I Needed To "explain" The Irony In My Work, Suggesting That I Needed To Add Text Next To The Images To Help People Understand What I Was Trying To Say. At First I Was Dismayed That I Wasn't Making Work With A Clear Enough Message. That's When I Realized That That Was The Exact Opposite Of What I Wanted To Do - That I Wasn't Responsible For A Misinterpretation Of My Work, That There Should Be Some Ambiguity To It. They Either Got It, Or They Didn't.

Dreamers Are Those Who Have Achieved In Love And Life, Because It Is A Dream That Got Them There.

The Way I See It, As Soon As I Make A Piece I’ve Lost Control Of It.

I’m Trying To Make Other People Recognize Something Of Themselves Rather Than Me.
