My paintings in recent years are in fact a synthesis of my perception of life, a confluence of contents of different origins. I call them “fragments”. These fragments symbolise passages from various lives, successive phases in this life, in an endeavour to bring together their different strands.
I calligraph all texts myself, wielding a paintbrush on oriental paper, and then incorporates them into my work. They are in the main philosophical texts and poetry derived from Chinese and Japanese culture. In so doing, I use traditional oriental materials. The aim is not to ensure that the texts are always entirely legible – they are, after all, merely fragments.
