Actually I think Art lies in both directions - the broad strokes, big picture but on the other hand the minute examination of the apparently mundane. Seeing the whole world in a grain of sand, that kind of thing.

All art really does is keep you focused on questions of humanity, and it really is about how do we get on with our maker.

I feel like, to me, art is a ladder to God, in my own opinion, you know. And so, for me, the more people that I can reach through many different artistic avenues, the better.

I look at art as a container. You can't get inside it, so you have to ask all of these questions.

I always feel like the art's there and I just see it, so it's not really a lot of work.

What the art world has done, it has been constantly been pushing the boundaries about what art can be. It's like expanding its territory.

Art is always a search for understanding, and the different levels and frequencies of that search feel completely comfortable and natural to me.

I think there are a lot more important things than art in the world. But not to me.

I believe that a work of art, like metaphors in language, can ask the most serious, difficult questions in a way which really makes the readers answer for themselves; that the work of art far more than an essay or a tract involves the reader, challenges him directly and brings him into the argument.

I think that's just part of how it is with making art. Sometimes you're just flooded with ideas, and then other times you're questioning all the ideas you ever had before, and everything is just... lame.
