The sheer endurance of your project is fascinating. A lot of people have this sort of experience but it’s very short-lived, a moment outside their regular lives. You allowed yourself to transform this “moment” into a decade.
To me, my entire life is an art project. There was no separation between my life and my work, so the way you do everything can and should be artistic. So, I’m 32 now. I’ll start a family soon. These are things that are all part of the periods of my life.  There was the one chunk where I was bouncing around the country living a very rough and tumble life. For me to keep focusing on that and making it my artwork for the rest of my life would be a disservice to me and to my artwork.

So now my life is about doing yoga and reading—a much calmer lifestyle. But it’s still the same life. It’s still the same path. But I think people look at what I’m doing now and say, “Well that’s weird. Why aren’t you staying true to your punk rock little hitchhiking roots?” You have to allow for life to progress. I want to have a family. I want to experience everything before I die. So to not do that, I would feel like I was missing something.
