The Soul Will Always Do What It

Because Of The Amount Of Press Attention, People Went To See This Dirty Bed, As If It Was A Freak Show. But When They Got There, They Saw Something Else - The Bed, Stuff On The Walls, Whatever. For The Tate, It's The Highest Attendance They Ever Received For The Turner Prize Show. There Was A Massive Queue, And When You Got Into My Bit, You Couldn't Move.

I Like Poor Materials. I Couldn't See Myself Making A Bronze Sculpture - It's Not Me. I Like Neon, Because It's Moving Constantly And Like Drawing. The Chemicals Going Through The Neon Turns Me On Really - It's Sexy. I Like Fabrics, But One Of The Main Things With Objects Is That I Really Have To Love Them Before I Can Use Them. I Have To Have The Object Around Me A Long Time. The Little Chairs I Used In My Last White Cube Show Are Ones That My Dad Bought For Me. A Sort Of A Psychometry With Objects And Things. It's Like The Pieces I've Made Are My Things.

What's Really Good About The Word 'art' Is That 'art' Is A Word Like 'love,' Or 'god,' Or Whatever. It Transcends So Many Things.

I'm Not Trying To Find Another Thing That's Wrong With Me, But I'm Such A Nice Person, And I Have A Couple Of Drinks And I'm Really Good Fun And Then I'm Really Not Fun

The Reason Why I'm Popular As An Artist In This Country Is Because It Suits The Psyche Of The Nation At This Time. Ten Years Ago, My Work Wouldn't Have Had Any Currency, Any Popularity At All. Before In This Country, You Had To Be Accepted. You Had To Be Part Of The Group. Now It's Probably More Trendy To Have A Problem.
