The reason artists want to have works in museums is that we want our works to be seen by as many people as possible and we want our ideas to be understood in more complicated ways.

It's not really about the material. It's about our capacity to shape things.

I'm not a preacher, but I preach. I'm not a Buddhist, but I chant. I'm not race theorist, but I have questions and ponderances around the complexities of race and class and culture wherever I am.

Modernism was influenced by what they call a primativist ethic.

What I think museums do very well is that they say to a public, "We have some stuff that's worth looking at."

Each time it was like a stray bit of glass pressed into the softness of her heart, grinding, grinding, oh so silently until she no longer noticed when she bled.

The sky is one whole, the water another; and between those two infinities the soul of man is in loneliness.

Thoughts rearrange, familiar now strange.

I guess I harboured hopes that things would happen more quickly, but I'm not disappointed.
