GENERALLY, I FEEL THAT MY SUBCONCIOUS DICTATES AN INTENTION MORE ON PROCESSING MY ART THAN CONSIDERING AN ULTIMATE MEANING OR MESSAGE. I WOULD ALSO SAY THAT IN DOING SO, I AM MOST OF THE TIME SATISFYING SOME KIND OF PSYCHOLOGY ON MY PART. I PICK UP ANYTHING (issues, forms, objects, texts contextswhatsoever)THAT I THINK WOULD MEET THE PHYCOLOGICAL DEMAND (S) OR SENSATION (S) THAT I EXPECT TO ACHIEVE OUT OF MY EFFORT. THOUGH, I WOULD NOT DENY THAT I AM CONSCIOUS OF INTENTION THAT PERTAINS TO MEANING (AS OTHER ARTISTS DO WITH LOTS OF CONSIDERATIONS I SUPPOSED)
