I Was Meticulously Copying Other

I Like Making Images That From A Distance Seem Kind Of Seductive, Colorful, Luscious And Engaging, And Then You Realize What You're Looking At Is Something Totally Opposite. It Seems Boring To Me To Pursue The Typical Idea Of Beauty, Because That Is The Easiest And The Most Obvious Way To See The World. It's More Challenging To Look At The Other Side.

Every Time You Have To Come Up With A New Body Of Work For A New Show, You're Aware That People Are Just Ready To Rip You Apart, They're Just Waiting For You To Fall Or Make The Slightest Trip Up.

I Was Meticulously Copying Other Art And Then I Realized I Could Just Use A Camera And Put My Time Into An Idea Instead.

I Think I Always Resented The Fact That People Thought I Was Trying To Entertain Them With My Multifaceted, Chameleonlike Character Changes. Although I Liked Doing That, I Wasn't Out To Fool People And Say 'guess Which One Is Me.'

I Feel I'm Anonymous In My Work. When I Look At The Pictures, I Never See Myself; They Aren't Self-portraits. Sometimes I Disappear.
