3. Artists are equipped with a certain ability to absorb and express everything that surrounds them, sometimes without even understanding where things are heading. Every artist must understand and treasure this ability.

4. You do not have to believe in inspiration; instead use the suggestions and energies that come to you in different situations and experiences, in the more unthinkable moments.

5. Look around and observe all that surrounds you; a garden is a mirror into society and its relationship with nature. It is also a mythical space, where the collaboration of artist and architect, full of fantasy and freedom, is possible.

6. Artistic invention is necessary for the urban environment. This requires the integrated job of sculptor and architect; work that is interesting and stimulating, as well as complex and problematic for both parties.

7. Sculpture, when it transforms the place in which it is placed, truly stands as a valuable testimony of its time period. It succeeds in creating a context within itself, in order to serve as a marker in history to help us remember and grow from. This is the secret of art; the gift that we all must hold onto.
