I Like To Think Of My Work As Creating A Private Conversation With Each Person, No Matter How Public Each Work Is And No Matter How Many People Are Present

I Didn't Have Anyone To Play With So I Made Up My Own World.

My Dad Was Dean Of Fine Arts At The University. I Was Casting Bronzes In The School Foundry. I Was Using The University As A Playground.

I Can't Shout Out, "do This." I Don't Want To Be Prescriptive. I Want To Give You Facts, And That's The Way I've Always Operated, Whether It's A Historical Fact Or A Scientific Fact, And Then You Actually Have To Connect It In Your Brain.

I Probably Spent The First 20 Years Of My Life Wanting To Be As American As Possible. Through My 20s, And Into My 30s, I Began To Become Aware Of How So Much Of My Art And Architecture Has A Decidedly Eastern Character.
