"I think the real subject for me, if there is one, is the sublime…It's this whole notion of somehow trying to shorten the distance of sublime experience…If one is looking at a Friedrich of a figure looking at the sunset, then one is having one's reverie in terms of their experience...It is my wish to make that distance shorter so that the reverie is direct. You're not watching someone else do it, you're compelled to do it yourself."
Anish Kapoor
