“My painting is not violent; it’s life that is violent. I have endured physical violence, I have even had my teeth broken. Sexuality, human emotion, everyday life, personal humiliation (you only have to watch television)—violence is part of human nature. Even within the most beautiful landscape, in the trees, under the leaves the insects are eating each other; violence is a part of life.

You are born, you fuck, you die. What could be more violent than that?”
― Francis Bacon

“This dreamlike logic hung over the entire afternoon.”
― J.G. Ballard, Crash

“Our personal hallucination now developed as boundlessly as perhaps the total nightmare of human society, for instance, with earth, sky, and atmosphere.”

“Boys... I hope you all just die.”
― Inio Asano, A Girl on the Shore
