"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."

"If you asked me what I spend most of my time doing it would be drawing, but it wouldn’t necessarily result in a picture. The actual act of doing those things is kind of a primer for what I do with all this other work. The technique is very much one of composing. It’s a very elaborate process which I’ve been doing for so long. But I tend to work with groups of similar images that I’ve actually drawn on separate pieces of paper. And then I compose them into one thing- reconstruct them or recompose them. Relate them."
