My newest tattoo. From George Orwell’s novel “1984”. For an appreciation of his work and of the concept of the strength of humankind v. the strength of the government and the media.
If you could go back in time 10 years and tell your younger self something, what would it be?
in order to acquire a growing and lasting respect in society, it is a good thing, if you possess great talent, to give, early in your youth, a very hard kick to the right shin of the society that you love. after that, be a snob.

if there's any message to my work, it is ultimately that it's ok to be different, that it's good to be different, that we should question ourselves before we pass judgment on someone who looks different, behaves different, talks different, is a different color.
