Catalogue Note

"My problem has always been that of creating an energetic, rather than material, work. I have always made things which I needed in that moment. I've never particularly loved materials. I'm only interested in those elements which can be fully adapted to an idea and most closely adhere to it." (the artist cited in: Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev, Arte Povera, London 1999, p. 275)
