"I want to make art that's bigger than life."

"I like to make art that's a bit of a spectacle, a bit of a show."

"I think art is a way of trying to make sense of the world."

"I'm interested in the idea of beauty, and how we find beauty in unexpected places, even in death."

"I like to make art that's a bit like a punch in the gut, something that makes you feel something deeply."
