All art is contemporary art because it had to be made when it was now.

We have spent billions to go to the moon - we go to this lesser satellite called the moon and say we are in space, but we are in space right now; we just don't feel ourselves to be in space. Some forms of art and some forms of spirituality do give us that sense.

I live in the sky as a pilot, so it has great meaning to me.

In age of consumerism and materialism, I traffic in blue sky and colored air.

Generally, we use light to illuminate other things. I like the thingness, the materiality of light itself. So it feels like it's occupying the space, making a plane, being something that was there, not just passing through. Because light is just passing through. I make these spaces that seem to arrest it for our perception.

I hope that when you see my work, you are looking at yourself looking.
