“Nothing that I do is abstract. I can locate all the ingredients of a painting in the richness of the outside world, the world of perception . . . If I take a thing from the real world, detach it and put it into a painting, something takes over that goes further than anything that I can logically describe or assess.” – Prunella Clough
