"When writing about my own art, I often get the sense that words and work don’t quite match. Like equal magnet poles, they repel one another; as if moved by an invisible force they slide apart. Only by the utmost coercion, and only for short moments at a time, do I ever manage" (Page 10, Slotte, 2011)

"a voice whose inner timbre I can recognise, the voice of my unarticulated ideas." (Page 10, Slotte, 2011)
