Surrealism had a great effect on me because then I realised that the imagery in my mind wasn't insanity. Surrealism to me is reality.

Reality leaves a lot to the imagination.

When reality looks too ugly, fantasize.

See fantasy is what people want, but reality is what they need. And I just retired from the fantasy part.

The blurring of fantasy and reality is something that the Japanese herald in their life, in their day-to-day commercialism.

I still like to live in a whimsical world that seems more romantic and fantasy-related because real life seems so hard.
