There's so much talk about female artists doing their own thing but being super supportive, coming together and doing projects together. I love that whole wave.

You don't want political acts to become something you just have to do in order to look good.

I was a bit of a tomboy.

I think the most radical thing you can do is be yourself.

You start off at an early age dreaming about love, but you have no idea how it will be.

The male muse is an unaccountably rare thing in art. Where does that leave female artists looking for inspiration?

People ask why there are so few female artists who succeed. It's because women are not ready to sacrifice as much as men. Women want a man, they want a family, they want to have children, they want to be loved, and to be an artist. And they can't; it's impossible.

Marlene Dumas is one of the two or three most successful female artists alive, if you judge by prices. I've never reviewed her work, because I find nothing in it to get excited about no matter how hard I look.

I definitely hope that I'm inspiring a lot of different female artists to run with the boys.
