Parkett Vol. 6
Quote
“I am interested in an experience that is not literally surrealistic but one that leaves room for fantasy, that opens up possibilities in the sense of an inner life. Reality is so terribly obsessive. An abstract, geometric work, like a Mondrian… It’s extraordinary but you can find other means today, freer forms of life than these rigid, mystical ones.”
