A work will only have deep resonance if the kind of darkness I can generate is something that is resident in me already.
From Anish Kapoor
I, in the end, make art for myself.
Re-investing in one's own little moments of insight is very important.
Red is a colour I've felt very strongly about. Maybe red is a very Indian colour, maybe it's one of those things that I grew up with and recognise at some other level.
You know that day after day of, Oh God what am I going to do with myself feeling? The fear of the emptiness that it implies keeps me going.
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.
I feel the symbolic world is the nub of a problem for an artist.
There's something imminent in the work, but the circle is only completed by the viewer.
Artists don't make objects. Artists make mythologies.
If you get a bad review, you take that in your stride.
