This monograph was published in conjunction with a solo exhibition of T. TORAO held at Gallery Jan Wallmark in Stockholm, March 9-30, 1991

“I was motivated by my partner’s illness to make these works which are included in this catalogue. Through her illness I saw death hidden behind a peaceful and secure life, and the aggressiveness of acts such as treatment and operation, Through here situation I realized the metaphor with which people try to cover up illness and the difficulties which she tried to change. And I also realized the fact that our body is namely the planet.” — T.TORAO
