"My approach tends to be from experiments. I need the challenge. If I know how to do something well, there's no need to do it all the time because it becomes a little monotonous. So I like to find a challenge."

"That’s what we try to do as artists. We try to push something to the point of breakage but stop just before. Sometimes we fail- we break the thing, we’ve gone too far. It’s important to learn where that breakage point is in order to set the parameters of what’s possible. Once you know your parameters, you know what to play with."
