Comments by a Painter

What exactly is it about a picture that moves us? In our modern age, is it actually possible for a painting to touch us so deeply that it makes us shiver? Or do paintings produce no real effect? That s how it sometimes seems to me. Maybe it should be embarrassing to me as a painter that I try to discover something in this wordless, non-narrative art form. And yet, I cannot stop painting.

現在では、人は絵画に打ち震えるほど感動するということがありうるのだろうか。絵画は無力なのではないか。そのような疑念に捕われることがある。黙して語らぬ芸術の中に何かを探すのは、画家としては恥ずべきことかもしれない。だか、絵画を描くことを断念はしていない。
