There’s something I call the escape hatch. Every project needs one. It’s the one part of the installation that doesn’t add up. And that escape hatch leads to the unconscious. To liberate the unconscious might be to let go of the ego, or the notion of authorship. I always come back to the word “conduit,” because I feel like an open channel when I’m making art. I often imagine my body as a funnel through which the world is poured. And yet I always anticipate the audience at the other end of that funnel, because without them, half of the picture is missing. I need someone to fantasize about!

Here is another still of my bucket piece. I walked for ten minutes as the bucket drained from entirely full to completely empty, from a small hole drilled in its bottom.
