- In
England if I did a show like this they would think:
"Oh God, it is so obvious." Putting
a skull in a painting is too obvious. Because
a skull means death. But here they understand
that a skull is a metaphor of transient life because
Mexico has such a long history loaded with imagery.
In North America I would also have problems with
this show because they are so afraid of death,
they hate this, they cannot look at a skull; they
feel like they are under attack. It's more to
do with a sense of humor failure than anything
else.

- I
think the biggest single difference between Australians
and Americans is that you were founded as a religious
experiment, and we were founded as a jail.
