The country of Britain is wonderful because of its royalty.

When I paint, some things come out, and I don't know. Maybe it's because I have such talent as a painter.

In my home country, there was a little shop with old books, but it was really in the countryside. You couldn't find English books. I found this very avant-garde American art book that had information about Georgia O'Keeffe. I was very much impressed by her.

Polka dots can't stay alone. When we obliterate nature and our bodies with polka dots, we become part of the unity of our environments.

Certainly, I devote my energy to both telling my personal life story and seeking self- obliteration. However, I will not destroy myself through art.

People ask about art and commercialism. I think that if someone tries to sell their work at a high price, that is the wrong way of doing it.
