"This action that i foresee has nothing to do with melodrama. It is that life that lived by me now is a series of exceptions. I was (am?) not unique but special. This is why i was an artist. I was inventing a language for people to see the everyday things i also see and show them something different. Nothing to do with not being able 'to take it' in a big city or with self doubt or because my heart is gone"
