I'd have him love the thing that was before the world was made.”

“When I look back on the past two decades of my journey today, I guess many people would interpret my artistic practice as a kind of cross-media attempt. I have indeed tried many different kinds of media over the past 20 years and collaborated in many different ways with people from many different fields.

To be honest, it's a bit of a paranoid act.”
