Other than a decade 1999-2009 my work has incorpoated humour. I am influenced by clowns, whether they be in the circus, silent movies, the anarchistic humour of the Mark Brothers or the clowns of art John Cage, Nam June Paik, George Brecht, Ben Patterson). DADA and Fluxus are also influences (there were a lot of clowns in Fluxus).
