When music captivates my being I am moved to create. There is a transcendent connection with the composer that invites me to journey into an unknown land and discover something new about myself. Who is behind the music? Who can translate this enchanted language that can reach me regardless of its origins? I want to be in a constant communication. I seek to remain engaged with the melody, but wanting to share who I really am in the context of this evening journey to Hamelin. A Road to Hamelin. A foreign but familiar land. I cannot believe that I just met the composer, who showed up in my exhibit last Friday...

I seek to collaborate with others. I want to bring forth my images that are born from an inspiration from others. I respond, because this is the role of the artist. Constantly engaged with the world and passionately commit myself to it. Commit myself to be for others and give meaning to this commitment. Life is absurd and there is not one convincing explanation of our death. Life and death. Beginning and end. Or is it end and beginning? I embrace my limitations. My limitations of understanding, my limited ability to write in an other language or to paint without formal training. I found an entire universe within my limitations and this is truly liberating. There is an art of words and I am just tasting this new possibility.
