I want to fly,
High above in the sky

Don’t push me away


We shall all fly
High above in the sky


I want to fly high above
In your sky

Can you let it be
Only your power
And not your greed

A part of me will die
By your side
Taking you with me

High high above
in the sky

While you sleep I shall wake up and fly

      "Every line appears for few seconds before it swaps to the next.
   Only the words that are different from the previous line change, 
and sometimes the in between characters are interchanged, 
creating a visual and mental play"

     Questions for artist: 

1. Referring to your most recent show at David Zwirner, how do you arrange your pieces and decide how to put them together?

2. How do you where to place text in your work?  Does every drawing need text to go along with it?  If not, how do you decide which ones need text?

3. How do you decide what to explain?  What is giving too much information? 

4. When deciding on text is there a method to the font you choose?  Does the font chosen carry certain weight?

5. In an interview you did with Scott Campbell you talk about collaborating with your kid in the future.  What role does collaboration play in your art now?  Do you always collaborate with others or are there things you do on your own?

6. What about color in your work.  What stays black and white and what gets colored?  Is there a specific process to this decision?


7. In your interview with Scott Campbell you talk about subject matter and nothing being off limits.  But what is too much?  Can you over-do a subject?  Is there a point when people stop caring about the same material?
