"I use a lot of repetition. And it becomes a filmic way of talking because as you put the same image after the other, even though it’s the exact identical image, everyone sees something changing from one image to the next."
"Memento Five, grey and yellow" (2002)

"How can someone have sculptural ideas? I can have an idea how to play a Mozart sonata; I can have an idea how to make baked potatoes. But a sculptural idea is different. It’s like a different mind, where I suppose we dig up some three-dimensional sense. We have an ability to step back...and we use that third dimension to take a distance."
- Richard Tuttle
