human work
I don't make political work. I don't make work that criticises the state. I make as human work as I can.
informing painting says
I have to go with what the painting says to me. The painting is always informing me. I'm its servant; it's not mine. I'm doing what it wants.
half hour necessary rest time
I'm probably creative for half an hour a day. The rest of the time, I'm just doing what's necessary to make that creativity visible.
