I'm Not An Artist Who Has An

Maybe The Way We Have Learned To Look Has Changed In The Last 25 Years, And The Exotic Is Much More Acceptable. There Are Many Artists Now, Younger Artists, Who Work Out Of The Exotic

I Used To Empty The Studio Out And Throw Stuff Away. I Now Don't. There Will Be A Whole Series Of Dead Ends That A Year Or Two Down The Line I'll Come Back To

The Work Itself Has A Complete Circle Of Meaning And Counterpoint. And Without Your Involvement As A Viewer, There Is No Story.

I Am Really Interested In The Idea That Art Can Reach Wider, Can Go Further, Can Go Beyond The Art World, Why Not? People Are Intelligent, People Are Visually Intelligent, And Why Shouldn't The Work Be Able To Engage Some Of That?

Being An Artist Is A Very Long Game. It Is Not A 10-year Game. I Hope I'll Be Around Making Art When I'm 80
