"Today in May 1938, the world around us suffers from the anxiety which the unemployment of millions brings with it.  In Germany we begin to be anxious because we have not enough workmen."

I sometimes say the conflict in the work is the conflict of my own thoughts and anxieties. It's a civil war in my head. The top part [of my artwork] is you letting go and floating. You become part of the air and you've tapped into the heartbeat of the universe. I guess that's what people do when they meditate.
