• Hasta que podamos insertarnos un USB en la oreja y descargar nuestros pensamientos, el dibujo sigue siendo la mejor forma de plasmar la información visual en la página. Dibujo como un collagista, yuxtaponiendo imágenes y estilos de marcado de muchas fuentes. El mundo que dibujo es el paisaje interior de mis obsesiones personales y de las culturas que he absorbido y adaptado, desde el arte popular letón hasta las pantallas japonesas. Trazo pensamientos con un bolígrafo. Dibujo una iglesia de duela o a alguien de la revista ¡Hola! no porque quiera reproducir su aspecto, sino por el significado que aportan a la obra.

• Taste is a phenomenon. Most of taste is unconscious - it comes from your upbringing, from your family, from your society, your gender, your race; it's a melange of all those things.

• Contemporary art often plays to the part of us that is very uncomfortable with not being sure, that cannot maintain a state of 'don't know'. The over-prioritising of meaning gets in the way of just experiencing the art in a more sensual way. Judging quality purely from an intuitive emotional response needs more confidence and experience than just working it out like a crossword clue.

• It is true that there are not many smiling faces in modern art galleries. Happy art is much harder to make. Art and humour are uneasy bedfellows. Artists need strong feelings to motivate them to make things. I am often fuelled by anger.

• The basic premise of taste, as Stephen Bayley, the cultural critic, said, is that taste is that which does not alienate your peers. Most people want to fit in with their tribe in some way or another, so they give off signals, whether it's with their clothes, their behavior, their car, their whatever, and gain status. Every tribe has a hierarchy, and that's what taste is: it's an unconscious display of who you are, and where you want to be.

• I like the idea of my art being a covetable object; I like preciousness. A lot of art seems to flaunt its throw-away character... But you have to sail out into the dangerous sea of fine art with these crafted works.

• Artists should imprint their handwriting on the work, because if they give a piece to a fabrication studio, the craftsmen there may actually be too perfect; you don't see the quirks that the artist would have developed.
