If you weren't an artist, what would you be?
I always thought of becoming a pilot, or a fireman, or a detective, or an astronaut.
What artist's work do you admire?
Unathi Mkonto's sculptural drawings.
They kinda jump at you, which few artworks in the world are able to do.

Why do you choose to work with Art Gazette?
I like the concept. Bulk buying at discounted prices. Art as wholesale. Jumbo Cash & Carry with a bit of pizzazz. Helping artists pay rent.

Famous artwork you would love to set fire to?
Cattelan’s banana taped to the art fair booth from [2019's] Art Basel Miami Beach.
It is a very annoying artwork but probably because I didn’t do it. And it also probably won’t burn very well.
Maurizio Cattelan, Comedian
