"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."

"The real motivation that brings me to the arena...to the sport spectacle in general has to do with the kind of intensity of perceptual experience, the perceptual overload that it represents for me. When the game is going, the lights are very bright, the noise is intense, it gets very exciting, and I’m drawn to think about what it must be like down on the court, having to train one’s perceptions and skills to play the game amidst all the...overload throwing you off balance."
