“I couldn’t be the artist I am and say the things I want to say, If I didn’t have the kind of cultural breadth in which I grew up. But also the constraints. Constraint is something that is in my work. Not being able to be creating from the age I was supposed to is why I am able to do it now.” - Ryan Marlon Munroe
