I like the fact of arranging rubbish to be coherent ... that one thing leads inevitably to the next thing, that it has a shape.– Yolanda Sonnabend
Yolanda is not in touch with the real world. She’s managed to create a fantasy world around her in this house; you only have to look around. She lives in a private world without being aware of what we are aware. We are aware that she can’t produce a likeness at all. This is what she sees — what’s on the canvas is apparently what she must be seeing.– Joseph Sonnabend on her sister
