Catalogue Note

"Because I make figurative art, people always ask about the figures...Just because you have a figure, that doesn't mean you don't realize it's also an abstraction".
The artist interviewed by Barbara Bloom in: Dominic van den Boogerd, Barbara Bloom, and Mariuccia Casadio, Marlene Dumas, London 1999, p. 28
