Art is a feast and I face it with honesty. Sometimes this feast will have dishes that are not suitable. Other times, people will join the feast who do not belong there. We all go to the feast with curiosity, but the real question is how do we leave it. My art is this study of crying, laughing, and then more crying.

藝術是一場我坦誠地面對的盛宴。 這場宴會不時會上些不合適自己的菜,同桌也不時出現和自己不對盤的人;我們每個人帶著好奇心匆匆赴宴但如何最終從容退場?這是一場哭著笑笑著哭的學問。
