Artist Comments
“I draw lines in accordance with the peculiarities in my hand writing and I organize these lines into a picture plane by using the structure which was born in the process of drawing. By drawing lines extemporaneously and intuitively with a playful mind, I express the decisiveness and graciousness on the picture plane.”(Yukari Bunya)
