“I have always just made things. I don't see what I make as being defined by a medium or aesthetic. It probably comes more from a fundamental restlessness, an attempt to create tools for questioning or understanding, and I have always been interested in using a wide spectrum of mediums to do this.”

“My office has two buildings that function like the right and left sides of the brain.

It's an architectural unfolding of the process instead of just one chaotic structure.”

“Thankfully, I had my mom, so growing up I'd see her really embody the Y2K aesthetic in its truest form.”

“It's my own personal unconscious that ultimately creates the novel's aesthetic facade.”

“Outside of hip-hop, it was in comics that I most often found the aesthetics and wisdom of my world reflected.”
