It s a very beautiful experience, especially in the United States, that people who are very far away from my work, and very far away from my world, see the pollen or milk stones and are so surprised. There is a spark, which initiates a whole experience and that is very strong in this country. I think in Europe, somehow they think they know so much more and they are so much more enclosed, they see something new and are afraid. I realize that in every exhibition I ve had here. It s always the case.
People strive for something they don t have.
That s something very beautiful. Yes, it brings them very far even if they can t realize it in their own lives because their environment is totally different. If they see something completely different, they can be taken, something can happen. Along those lines, I think that much of the art you see now involves narrative or storytelling. And that s always an easy point of entry.
