It's Art That's Taught Me To Think

People Do Not Realise That Many Of My Works Are Done In Urban Places. I Was Brought Up On The Edge Of Leeds, Five Miles From The City Centre-on One Side Were Fields And On The Other, The City.

A Lot Of My Work Is Like Picking Potatoes; You Have To Get Into The Rhythm Of It. It Is Different Than Patience. It Is Not Thinking. It Is Working With The Rhythm.

A Snowball Is Simple, Direct And Familiar To Most Of Us. I Use This Simplicity As A Container For Feelings And Ideas That Function On Many Levels.

The Reason Why The Stone Is Red Is Its Iron Content, Which Is Also Why Our Blood Is Red.

Ephemeral Work Made Outside, For And About A Day, Lies At The Core Of My Art And Its Making Must Be Kept Private.
