Quotes

  • Everything comes from drawing out my ideas.
  • Popular culture is one part of teeming life that everybody, all of us, are involved in,
  • Everything I have done and experienced gets into the work somehow or another—my childhood, my family life, my grad-school days.
  • My work is very much about being in the city. It's very much about the streets and the buildings and the feeling of enclosure. And in that sense New York is very conceptual. I'm not an intellectual, not by any means. I admire those minds very much. But New York is about enclosure and the energy of enclosure, and has a kind of a tough irony. I mean, it's a city of complete contrasts and some bitterness, conflict, anger, and it's also a … place of enormous hope.
