"I like to make combinations that seem incongruous:
wood with plaster, pencil drawing on wood.
But finally, I put things where they belong:
a hand at the end of an arm, a nose in the middle of the
face;
a hat on top of the head, a shoe on a foot, a foot on a leg;
a breast on a woman’s torso;
a mouth a little below the nose and a nostril inside the
nose."
