It's good for art to make us think, to give us a shared experience that creates a dialogue, makes us talk to each other, including strangers.

The goal of art-making in general is communication.

Art, in the first place, has to connect with yourself.

You can turn something into art just because of the way you tell people to look at it.

Art is essentially communication. It doesn't exist in a vacuum. That's why people make art, so other people can relate to it.

I don't believe that art is just for entertainment. I want to create art that is meaningful in some way.

When I make art, I think about its ability to connect with others, to bring them into the process.

I want art to make me think. In order to do that, it may piss me off, or make me uncomfortable. That promotes awareness and change, or at least some discussion.

I make art primarily for myself and to show my friends, so I guess it's important to make art that they can connect to.

I make pictures and someone comes in and calls it art.
