I am against limitations like perspective. Perspective is illusion, it's the opposite of presence, and art is presence.

Painting is a play of opacities and transparencies.

If painting doesn't offer a way to dream and create emotions, then it's not worth it.

I realized that most people waste their lives earning a living, and I wanted to live. I love painting, so I keep painting. That's how I became an artist.

I always liked paintings to be walls rather than windows. When we see a painting on a wall, it's a window, so I often put my paintings in the middle of the space to make a wall.

Painting allows us to live in a more interesting way than we live our everyday lives.

Black ink was always my favorite. I loved it. And then one day I realized that the only thing I ever wanted to do was to paint.
