“The experimental process of an artist is a journey of revelation and playfulness. At this moment I need a lack of seriousness, yet a committed attitude of exploration and a trust and acceptance of the end result. In an over-serious world where all the events are depicting doom, I choose to see lightness and brightness. One may call it an escape from reality … so be it! This work stands for itself and in itself. Talking of frivolity, let it be frivolous; for me it serves as a process and a vehicle of gentle release, a graceful letting go of what was, is and what will be, simply being in the moment which creates joy—a joy which I celebrate and do not apologize for.”
