One has to have seen or felt the world, that is, one must know something specific, in order to grasp it and to make it. And not only to stand in passing or in the dark.
He only paints because he likes the names of the colours:
sepia, umber, titanium white, phthalo green, cerulean blue.

...Physical sensation is visually difficult to define, where does it begin, where does it end, what shape does it have, pointed, round, jagged - and to explore this is like fencing in clouds, pinning down realms of mist, physical mysticism.
I almost have to apologise, as actual bodies were created in an undertaking that sounds more like research than art.
This is because my knowledge of the real distances between forehead and nose, neck and chest, was not switched off and left as artistic compromise.
What appears to be a deformation of reality is not, because reality takes place on another level, the emotional level. If this often seems congruent with what is visually perceptible, it is because my sense of distance, trained on external things, has become blind certainty. Thus, external reality, which everyone sees on the body, becomes congruent with felt reality, which is so difficult to define.
