“I do paintings that are always a combination of beauty and ugliness and good and evil, life and death, all the simple contradictions of human existence. I think there is some evidence of this in every image. Also, it is always the figurative portraiture that interests me, human faces, human eyes. I never have done landscapes or objects on their own: it is always the figure itself that interests me and people that I find fascinating and their experience with life and eventually death. To me beauty and horror is combined in everything, everyday, all over the world.”
