In principle, I do not see much need to write a statement because I think my creations are my statement. Anyway.....
From the time Mr. Cave man imprinted his hands on the walls of his cave, he invented religion, started philosophizing, created art.
From that moment Homo sapien became the ruler of the earth. Without art we were most probably still, in the same state as our fellow primates.
I paint, create sound and make moving pictures because it is the only way I am able to justify my existence.
I call everything I create art. If it is of some art value, is for others to be decide.
