"Often when you're in the process of realizing an image, it's going somewhere else. If that tangent starts going off in a place that feels more exciting, that's what I go with."

"I have two sides: creativity and the architecture. It's got ideas about framing the landscape, being ecologically and environmentally sensitive, not that a lot of the artworks aren't using recycled materials and about nature in another way. But formally, I liked that they're different, that I don't want my architecture looking like my sculptures and I don't want the sculptures being at all architectonic in their form."
- Maya Lin
