"I am actually creating the figure using decalcomania technique
However, since change is given to a pattern, I crush paper in my hand at
once. The shadow and wrinkles which were then made are removed within a
computer. Usually, I do not carry out practice for a musical instrument. A
musical instrument is not touched other than the time of recording at the
time of a performance. I started making of decalcomania from 96' as the
practice method except playing a musical instrument to music. Therefore, I
did not hold an exhibition until now.
My paintings are not what became independent as paintings, but are parts of
the process for making music. "

"Since i was fourteen I have written down my dreams.  I often wake up in the
middle of the night after a dream and write down what i've just experienced.
In the morning I just put these notes in my dream archive and forget them.
But now and then I sit down and read through what i have dreamt, and it is
like reading somrthing that somebody else has written or experienced.  Often
I totally forgot the dreams, which makes the notes extremely valuable for
me, naturally.  It's as though I've captured something that accidentally
touched me, just came up to the surface for a glimpse, and I succeeded in
catching it.  I regularly use dreams for my work, as a starting point for
something to be completed, like text fragments."  - leif elggren (from
bananafish magazine)

"cell variations is a series of oil monoprints printed off glass.  To me i
see these relating to organic cells, infected, diseased and healthy.
Printing from glass provides a sense of organic randomness within a limited
space, taking the artist a step away from the process"
