"Drawing is very central to the way that I work because it can be blown up, taken apart.... You can just keep on pushing it, like this infinite machine...."

"What they share is that they all look incredibly simple but they’re very complex. How can I be available to the most unsophisticated person that there can be but also engage the most sophisticated viewer? It’s a paradox but you don’t often get there, which is a great thing to achieve or try to achieve."
-John Baldessari
