20. “Since my early years until now, the natural world
and its visual wonders and horrors—man-made
devices with their mind-boggling engineering

human nature and its multiple ramifications from
the sublime to unbelievable abhorrences—to me
are all one. It is in the spirit of this feeling that the
primary influences on my work have occurred.”
