    \u201cMy fundamental influences are coming from film and literature. The only reason I choose to be a visual artist is the independence that it carries. Of the art forms, it is the one least in need of an outside producer, and I have a pathological inclination for naughtiness,\u201d says Torres Llorca. \u201cThrough the years I haven\u2019t cared what type of classification my art is subject to, whether it\u2019s considered art, post-art, literature, or a simple commentary. I do not care what type of resources it uses, the provenance, or how bastardized it could be if I can use it. The essence for me is to establish a public dialogue.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
