As I'm getting older, I'm moving away from calculations and measurement. I'm trying to be more open to vulnerability and mistakes.

I have a lifetime project which consists of boxes and boxes filled with envelopes on which people have written my name. I've always thought of it as a kind of double portrait, and a portrait of our relationship, which in some cases means nothing. But it makes me feel connected.

Sometimes being an artist is a real drag. It can be incredibly bureaucratic.

Every time I work on a project, I keep every little piece of paper.

It's nice to make a project where you can show the full breadth of who you are.

I carry a knife with me so I can cut images out of cardboard boxes. I'm always cutting cardboard. Especially every Thursday, which is recycling day.

Maybe I don't think I'm touching people, but I am. Sometimes I'm sitting there at three in the morning, proofreading something, and I'm thinking, Is this really worth it? Or am I doing this only because my mother taught me never to give up? Then you realize, no, even if it doesn't come back to you, you are touching people.

I like well-made clothes, and I don't mind spending a lot of money on something that looks super, super simple. I don't like knockoffs.
