My creation process is similar to digging the water well in my mind. When the well is still shallow, I get muddy water but as I dig deeper, I get cleaner water. Intangible things are filled up inside of my mind. Personal matters, social issues, many things transform into something in my mind, and they accumulates as layer of earth.
I focus on one of the elements, then change the form and visualize it.
When I work on my own, I am hoping to find the groundwater vein which connects myself and to your mind, So, even today, I set the ladder into the water well of my mind, and go down to the bottom where there is no light.
