Quote by Fancy Joy

“Life changes. Sometimes it is a slow progression, and sometimes it changes drastically in the blink of an eye. It seems to me that life is like being on a raft in the ocean. There are times when we are up on the crest of a wave, loving life, seeing far into the future with hope and happiness. Then other times there seems to be a huge wave crashing right on top of us, and we feel like we are going to drown. And then there are the times we are just floating on our raft in the calm seas, waiting for something to happen. Whatever the case, life changes. You just have to hold on to your raft and ride the waves.”

It crops up in too many advertisements, politcians' speeches, Disney films, its meaning obliterated. I refuse to be 'inspired' in the same insipid way that ad executives and politicians and Hollywood producers suggest I should be. What I need from these works is to be reminded of why I used to care about art—so much that I'd try and make it for myself.”

“We rarely saw each other outside the walls of the gallery, but inside its glaring white spaces, to exorcise the tedium of the tasks we shared, Ben and I often ended up talking, and time and time again, he would say things that resonated so powerfully with my uneasiness about life, and back there and then, I believed it was an uneasiness unique to us, and that we were somehow bound by it.”
