I adore the spontaneity and energy of fly posters, street art and graffiti, and have chosen this as a vehicle to express my emotions in this piece. I’m fascinated by the impulsive nature, purity of expression and the dreamlike quality of theses multimedia collaborative collages and producing these from my own creative wellspring.
This piece was named after the text in one of the posters I produced and ripped up within the layers of the composition (translated from Japanese). The lower layers also feature a crudely sprayed beetle and bright pink road, which stem from my recent fascination with the constant battle for dominance between human society and nature, particularly in urban areas. The inclusion of a hand grenade reflects the destruction that we wreak on nature with our modern infrastructure.
