“I always know the people in my pictures. Very often they take the form of monkeys and bears and all sorts of things. It’s easier if you make them into animals because you can do things to animals that you can’t do to people because it’s too shocking.”
Paula Rego, quoted in: Ben Eastham and Helen Graham, ‘Interview with Paula Rego’, in The White Review, January 2011, online
