“I know; it was like having a grant, I slept on a plywood shelf over the entrance, and no one knew I lived there. And I went to YMCA everyday to work out and take a shower - There no hot water in my loft. I didn’t have a single employee for fifteen years, nor did I have a single client; I supported myself by teaching. That lasted untill 1993, when I won the competition for Kiasma museum in Helsinki. That was just twelve years ago. And you say there is no drama!”
