Art
"The stones tear like flesh, rather than breaking. Although what happens is violent, it is a violence that is in stone. A tear is more unnerving than a break."
Art
"I have worked with this red all over the world - in Japan, California, France, Britain, Australia - a vein running round the earth. It has taught me about the flow, energy and life that connects one place with another."
Life
"Three or four stones in one firing will all react differently. I try to achieve a balance between those that haven't progressed enough and those about to go too far."
Balance
"The difference between a theatre with and without an audience is enormous. There is a palpable, critical energy created by the presence of the audience."
Difference
"Winter makes a bridge between one year and another and, in this case, one century and the next."
Seasons
"Abandoning the project was incredibly stressful after having gone through the process of building the room, installing the kiln, collecting the stones, sitting with the kiln day and night as it came to temperature, experiencing the failures."
Building
"People do not realise that many of my works are done in urban places. I was brought up on the edge of Leeds, five miles from the city centre-on one side were fields and on the other, the city."
People
"The first stone was just tried in the spirit of experimentation. The opening of the stone was far more interesting than the drawing that I had done on it."
Art
"Photography is a way of putting distance between myself and the work which sometimes helps me to see more clearly what it is that I have made."
