I keep things moving along with a seriously loving, caring, and brilliant man, a fierce group of friends - and really strong coffee.

I would like to make work for my country, art which is innately Kenyan by being made in Kenya.

Some people get turned on by my work, and it sells, but what drives me is the process of making it.

If I don't have an ability to go the places that I have been invited to show at and to speak at and to feature my talent, well then, I am going to stay here in New York City and work my butt off.

We became Homo sapiens not that long ago, from the scientific perspective, and we've retained a lot of our beast nature. We've done all these amazing things in terms of our knowledge base and technology, and now we're flying around and using the Internet. But we're still very animalistic.

I really believe in dreaming and making things from nothing.

So many a time, I would find myself stuck in my studio while, in another country, my exhibitions were opening and I was being celebrated.

I've always loved the idea that you think you know what you're looking at from a distance, yet when you come up close, it gets intricate and nutty and obscene and provocative.

Often, there's an emphasis in my work, and it's sort of the celebrating of the body.

I hope my kids see imagination has power to change everything.
