chie fueki -- "nikko" (2018)

"i am interested in the symbols that are flooding our world, which everybody can recognize, but which have almost no meaning" ... chie fueki

"we shall not cease from exploration and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time" ... t.s. eliot

"currently, the paintings i'm working on are based on real people and specific events, but the figures are even more abstract. i am open to the fluidity of symbols shifting: for instance, from the circle-head of a traffic symbol to a moon in a landscape" ... chie fueki
