I take pride in having something to say, which people actually want to hear.

Birds themselves are so interesting and intelligent, and they give so many cues without being verbal, so they say such great things. Feathers are superior to fur, even. They're so beautiful, and nature uses such amazing colors.

As a creative person, you want to start with a blank canvas.

My work is always very geometric.

I hope to grow another head and two more hands, like an Indian goddess.

I remember an old Singer sewing machine at home that belonged to my grandmother. It had a pedal. My mom taught me how to use it when I was 12 years old. I used to find it so intriguing, how a flat piece of material could be made into an object that had so many uses.
