I would be at a gallery opening and someone would ask me: so what are you doing these days? I would reply, I am interested in the word 'time'. Later, someone would ask: But how can time be your art? And I might have replied, 'as it is spoken: time.' Another day, someone might have asked, having heard I was using time as my art: So what are you working with these days? and I would reply: time. I am interested in the idea […] I like the work when it is spoken: time.' And so the work was used over and over again.
