Good work should be punishing. it should take a form and translated over time. if through my work i translate something to someone and it survives time and people are still thinking about it. Things that are honest are important to me too. Do you have any new projects you are working on? i am working on a music video for a band. i am also doing a project called tape art. it is about doing art in public spaces. We are teaching people about art, process and the way humans and the environment interact. introducing people to public art. We are bridging the gap between art and the environment. We want to change the way people think about art and public space. Has there been a memorable experience for you in your career? Jay [zehngebot] influences me a lot. We lived in the Providence Place Mall in an empty concrete room under the garage for four years. it seemed like an abandoned room so we moved in. We used the bathroom in the mall, we found an extension chord [that] we ran to an outlet in the garage and had light, heat, a hot plate to make food. We just made art down there. it was really Jay who was into the whole public space thing and we just had a great time there.
