I’ve lived on the sea all my life. I live on the sea in Cape Breton.  (Richard Serra Quotes) On the other hand, if there’s an underlying core of poetry that I go to, I go to the sea. I’ve lived on the sea all my life.

I could use it the way bridge builders used it; I could use it the way they used it in industry and building and not the way it had been used in art  (Richard Serra Quotes) Your eye is a muscle, you have to keep it in shape and the more you draw, the more you see  (Richard Serra Quotes) The viewer becomes aware of himself and of his movement through the plaza. As he moves, the sculpture changes. Contraction and expansion of the sculpture result from the viewer’s movement. Step by step the perception not only of the sculpture but of the entire environment changes  (Richard Serra Quotes) What interests me is the opportunity for all of us to become something different from what we are, by constructing spaces that contribute something to the experience of who we are  (Richard Serra Quotes) I consider space to be a material. The articulation of space has come to take precedence over other concerns. I attempt to use sculptural form to make space distinct  (Richard Serra Quotes) Time and movement became really crucial to how I deal with what I deal with, not only sight and boundary but how one walks through a piece and what one feels and registers in terms of one’s own body in relation to another body  (Richard Serra Quotes) Work out of your work. Don’t work out of anybody else’s work  (Richard Serra Quotes) I think you always have to find where the boundary is in relation to the context in order to be able to kind of articulate how you want the space to interact with the viewer  (Richard Serra Quotes) I think this, I think basically I’m not interested in people following my work or making work like my work  (Richard Serra Quotes) I think different people have different problems and different relations to the exhibition of their work  (Richard Serra Quotes)
