- painting as text. no need for interpretation, it does not visually represent anything but is, itself contained and signifying
- support/frame are irrelevant other than historical artifact
- permanence is a myth
- ordering of compositional elements is unnecessary except as related to self-contained visuality wherein discourses emerge; again, these are not related to words, or even thoughts, but are self-sustained symbols and signs moving towards meaning
- art is meaningless...which is why it must be meaningful
- no one is watching
- i no longer respect systems of constraint: commerce, dissemination, recognition but rather I am interested in systems of liberation: the spatial, the arena of discourse, anonymity, immediacy. my work has no need for identity or "style"
New approaches now present themselves to me. I am once again adrift.
