Masami Teraoka, Longing Samurai, 1993

 

“In Longing Samurai, the punk-haired boy could easily have been me at the age of twenty-five when I arrived in America.

It is not easy for this punk-boy to become friends with the American woman in front of him. It seems he might be having a sexual fantasy but the reality is definitely beyond his grasp.” – MASAMI Teraoka

Matthew Bower: “I have a problem with the term ‘psychedelia’and its negative associations of a ‘hippie’ falseness. Nevertheless, my arte is, I know, deeply psychedelic in a true sense, a kind of synaesthesisia, a scrambling, an overload that seeks Samadhi in its primal gush, that will reconnect one with the all, or rather, a ‘black psychedelia,’ substituting the elective current, for ‘all’….”
