Catalogue Essay
"In front of me lay an austere road to originality. Run forward, I thought, run and run, it won’t matter if I fall down... Let me do it with my hands, with my fingers. Then, as I ran, thinking that I was moving forward, it occurred to me: Why not feet? Why don’t I paint with my feet?" Kazuo Shiraga, 1955
