"For us, the idea of having a work that has contradictions is very important—when, in affirming something, it includes itself and attacks itself. How can you put together all of these things that have nothing to do with each other? You use glue! Glue can be an idea, a word. You can use an ideological glue."

"Whenever I use museum things, ancient things, I’m interested in how the metaphors relate to our contemporary situation or contemporary notions. I would like to think that objects have memories- or that they’re imbued with memory."
