Quote

I am very conscious of who I am as an artist and as an inspirational person.

An artist must be free to choose what he does, certainly, but he must also never be afraid to do what he might choose.

The nice thing about the world that I've been able to inhabit for the last couple of years is that I'm given a lot of freedom. Not all artists really get that.

I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination.

I'm a free spirit and that definitely comes from my upbringing, so it's definitely shaped me as an artist.

I create for artistic intent only and do everything from life.

I think, like any artist or any writer, I just want to have that pure freedom of expression and of thought - the freedom to explore and move in unexpected ways.

At the end of the day, I'm an artist. I may make work and decide to do something political, but it will come out of an artist's position. It won't come out of society telling me I have to. If I do, it's because I choose, as an artist, to do it.

I'm an artist, and the need to get inside myself and be creative and be other people is a part of who I am. I don't imagine I'll abandon that completely.

An artist is a dreamer consenting to dream of the actual world.
