Describe your artistic style in three words.
Let me think
What's inspiring you right now?
Silence, by John Cage
What do you do when you're feeling uninspired?
I read and work out, and eat.
Tell us something unique about your process.
My process is different every time, and that makes it exciting when I start a new project and every day when I'm in the studio.
What advice do you have for other artists?
Take well care of your body and of your head, and then make work.
Anything else you'd like to share?
I recently watched Pain and Glory, by Spanish director Pedro Almodóvar, and I loved it!
