The dialogue\/collision of these two worlds, which might contain limited meanings on their own, generates 'additional meanings.' The newspaper page, with its texts, photographs, colors, and textures, often serves as a visual-semantic starting point that inspires me. The world I construct on top sometimes rejects and ignores the existence of the one below, and sometimes responds to it. In both cases, they form a semantic unity.
