Urs Fischer

I don't really care about the art world. I care about art.

Art is not about understanding. It's about experiencing.

I like things that are a bit off, a bit wrong.

My work is about the process of making, and the process of decay.

I'm interested in the moment when something becomes something else.

I don't want to make art that is easy to consume.

The most interesting things happen when you don't know what you're doing.

I like to play with expectations.

Art should be a little bit dangerous.

I'm not trying to tell a story. I'm trying to create an experience.

Everything is temporary. That's what makes it beautiful.

I'm interested in the absurd.

My work is about transformation.

I don't have a message. I have a question.

I like to make things that are a bit uncomfortable.

Art is a mirror. It reflects what you bring to it.

I'm not trying to be profound. I'm just trying to be honest.

I like to challenge myself, and I like to challenge the viewer.

The best art makes you think, but it also makes you feel.

I'm interested in the fragility of things.
