We are living in the world full of heart-breaking incidents, which makes me wonder what I should do. I understand that I can do nothing about it. I know, however, that the meaning and value of something are not absolute but constantly changing. Even something that seems never change may someday changes dramatically. My everyday life is peaceful, not affected by heart-breaking news. Under the circumstances, I could only make artworks on the premises that everything changes.
