Artist statement I am interested in hidden possibilities. I believe that the powerful and the great can fall apart in an instant, and that the small and the weak are capable of having extraordinary and almost threatening power. I only paint the pattern of the gold fish and its appearance seems to lack something. I express fragility or an existence which includes possibility, incompletion, and imperfection.’
Goldfish might be seen as boring creatures, artificially created to please the human eye but I believe their charm lies in their moving sense. They jump and dance around. Even when I feel life is flat and it looks like I don’t stand a chance, I always like to think that things might change when one holds a positive power. I would at least like to realize that I am trying.
