Exhibited: September 14 - October 20, 2018 "PEOPLE MISUNDERSTAND ME AND THE CONTENTS OF MY PAINTINGS. THEY JUST THINK THEY ARE NOSTALGIC, CUTE, AND LOOK LIKE JAPANESE ANIME. THAT MAY BE TRUE, BUT REALLY, I PAINT DAILY IN ORDER TO ESCAPE THE DEVIL THAT HAUNTS MY SOUL. THE SAID DEVIL ALSO RESIDES IN MY BLOOD, AND I CANNOT ESCAPE FROM IT NO MATTER HOW I WISH. SO I PAINT IN RESIGNATION." Galerie Perrotin, Hong Kong

Condition: Good condition. There are minor undulation, creases, and creasing marks which are thought to be original condition. There are see-through tapes at all corners on the verso. The verso is not examined out of the frame since it is mounted on a mat.
