I’ve always known that death, deception or untruths are around each corner. For me, the challenge lies in being able to confront it by turning that corner. Art gives me ways to work out the courage. But mostly I end up lost. Which in some ways enables me to start again and emerge deeper from that experience. All art is failure, deconstruction, extremity and confrontation. And that’s just fine with me.
