THE NORTH RIDING PROJECT

The Hulk I created when I saw a woman lift a car.  Her baby was caught under the running board of this car.  The little child was playing in the gutter and he was crawling from the gutter onto the sidewalk under the running board of this car.  His mother was horrified.  She looked from the rear window of the car, and this woman in desperation lifted the rear end of the car.  It suddenly came to me that in desperation we can all do that – we can knock down walls, we can go berserk, which we do.  You know what happens when we’re in a rage – you can tear a house down.
