About Artwork:
The power of Nature
Man is a product of Nature. Hence, man has got the power of Nature that includes the mighty strength of an earthquake or a typhoon. I think I have that power as well, and art is its way of expression. Works of art conceived by thinking show only a factitious and artificial power.
I love not to think about anything. It is in such a situation that it occurs to me how and what to do.
Then I feel a great desire to make a new work. I begin making it immediately but when I am drawing lines my mind gets empty.
Only happiness and fun remain, and the work appears before my eyes. When the work itself awakes my heart I feel the utmost joy.
