“I use wine, Pepto-Bismol, ammonium, urine, my menstrual blood. A lot of people do it so seriously, like ‘Hey! Boy, isn’t this funny?!’ – because it’s so gross. It’s on hand! It’s not meant to be taken so seriously. I save my menstrual blood. I put it in bottles. Blood is so cool to work with and I did a piece I needed tons of blood for. Each month there’s a little less than half a bottle of beer. It’s a little bit witchy, I guess, but it’s so practical. I’m not going to cut myself and bleed – I try not to be too romantic about it. Your period is just a practical way to get blood. [Laughs]”
