Quote

In my plays I want to look at life - at the commonplace of existence-as if we had just turned a corner and run into it for the first time.

I take a simple view of life: keep your eyes open and get on with it.

I look at life, the experiences I've had, at the human condition, the dynamics between people, the news (world news), and draw from the compelling realities all around us.

I take a simple view of life. It is keep your eyes open and get on with it.

Our daily lives are so mundane, we get taken over by what is immediately in front of us and we don't see beyond that.

I have a vision of life, and I try to find equivalents for it in the form of photographs.

I think what I tend to do is look at all the very ordinary things that are around the house and imagine bringing them to life.

We have lost contact with reality, the simplicity of life.

I always like to look on the optimistic side of life, but I am realistic enough to know that life is a complex matter.

Perhaps looking out through big baby eyes - if we could - would not be as revelatory experience as many imagine. We might see a world inhabited by objects and people, a world infused with causation, agency, and morality - a world that would surprise us not by its freshness but by its familiarity.
