Looking back at your trajectory as an artist, how would you say your work has developed?
Completely, I’ve become much more conscious of my motivations and inspirations.
What role do you think the artist has in today’s society?
Activist, commentator, provocateur
What’s the most important advice you could give to an aspiring artist?
An artist gets to say and do what others are afraid or unable to do and say.
Does age matter in art? Why or why not?
It can matter, if you think it matters. Trends and experience alter the kind of work done too.
What can we look forward to from you next?
I am working on Monologues about Incest with photos and costumes
