I realize over and over again that your interviews are not only about showing the artists to the world, but you are also a kind of psychologist to them, because many of them - or maybe all of them - need someone to talk to, about their artworks, about their struggling and so on. Many artists
seem to be lonely and not understood by "normal" people. I think your attention to these artists is so precious!

Thank you for your kind words. Yes it's true that sometimes it helps to tell your story as an artist to someone and in the process you also help others who might be able to relate with what you have gone through. Thank you for watching this interview and giving your insight and observations.

I understand that she was sad when her mentor told her to change her personality... I guess that mentor had just superficial knowledge about the human psyche. I heard this "advice" a lot, too, but with the years I realized it is totally silly. You just need to develop certain other characteristics around your personality to protect yourself, but you don´t need to lose your vulnerability or anything else, because it means you loose your human traits. How the world should be when everyone who had deeper feelings and emotions would lose their personality?
