‘Who is that person?’ ‘Well why don’t you tell me, because we both know nothing.’
And as an artist I don’t like to be tied down to subject matter or ways of thinking, I don’t really want to be tied to anything, unless it’s a good home. And so I threw all my string away. And as I vary and change my work varies and changes too. And I’ve developed an interest in people, and although people have always been a constant in my ever changing work, I think that I have only now come to realize that. And I find fascination in the lives of strangers. And I make work about myself too, in an often confessional manner. And I love the contrast in how work I make about myself is based on emotions, and that work about strangers is pure facts and figures and photographs. And I can add whatever I so choose to there story, I can give purpose, I can assume, I can turn reality into fantasy. I can be the writer. But in my own story I’m just the actress.
And I like installation and the searching for and finding of objects I require, and putting everything together, giving it a place and a purpose. I love composition and juxtaposition and organizing objects. But me, myself, I am an organised mess. But at least I know where I stand. Even if I can’t see the floor I’m standing on. And I also know what I want, and I want to be a practising artist, and it’s all I’ve ever wanted.
