I don’t categorize myself as a feminist, but my life certainly had been driven by one obsession to break through my own glass ceiling. So, in honor of [ International Women’s Day ], I made this collage ‘ L’influence ‘ as a tribute to the women who have been a great inspiration of my life.
Interestingly, there are no musicians ( Juliette Gréco falls into the performance artist category in my mind ) … All of them, in their own way, persevered in their work for the rest of their lives and became pioneers who embody a worldview that no one else can emulate. Four out of six are painters, which also makes sense. Because for me, making music on the computer is like painting a three-dimensional painting using a variety of invisible paints. You have to narrow down the theme and face the canvas meticulously. Paying close attention to composition, lights & shadow, and how to preserve the ‘ Empty space ‘.

私は自分自身をフェミニストだとは思わないけれど、私の人生は自分自身のガラスの天井を突き破りたいという強迫観念によって動かされてきたことは確かです。そこで「国際女性の日」に敬意を表し、私の人生に多大なインスピレーションをくれた女性たちへのオマージュの想いを込めてコラージュ ’L’influence’ を作ってみました。
興味深いことにミュージシャンはいない（ジュリエット・グレコは私の中ではパフォーマンス・アーティストのカテゴリーに入る）。
全員が、それぞれのやり方で、一生をかけて粘り強く仕事を続け、誰にも真似のできない世界観を体現するパイオニアになった。
６人中４人は画家だが、これにも納得がいく。なぜなら私にとってコンピューターでの音楽制作とは、見えない多彩な絵の具を使って３次元の絵を描くようなものだから。
テーマを絞り、綿密にキャンバスに向き合わなければならない。コンポジション、光と影、そしていかに『間』を残すかに細心の注意を払いながら。
