I have made my living as a costumer. But I have made ‘things’ all my life. I don’t make particularly beautiful things. I am daunted by those who create beautiful things. To me the most beautiful things come from nature, and I can’t compete. I make things to help me think, to help me understand, and to keep me sane.
