The Artist’s obligation is towards their art

Not to a demand

Nor a trend

And certainly not another’s opinion

What if the Artist’s obligation changes?

When a studio molds itself into a factory

Does the Artist name themself as the Producer?

Most would be certain to say

A certain feeling towards Art would decay

A sadness would grow

Would the Producer get lost in their success

Or would the Artist persevere and show?"

“For me, creation can only come out of a certain kind of sadness…”
