I'm a bit of a propagandist.

I'm a bit claustrophobic, I know that now.

I stay up nights and fiddle with my opera designs. It's a bit obsessive. That's why I can't do it all the time.

I'm a bit claustrophobic, I don't like crowds, I live by the sea - that's what I see when I come out of my house in Bridlington.

Television is becoming a collage - there are so many channels that you move through them making a collage yourself. In that sense, everyone sees something a bit different.

Anyway I feel myself a bit on the edge on the art world, but I don't mind, I'm just pursuing my work in a very excited way. And there isn't really a mainstream anymore, is there?
