I’ve always wondered what is real and what is artificial in a work of art. For me what’s real is the primitive reaction of the artist before unavoidable stimuli from the environment and experiences that inspire him. The artificial side then is the work of art itself, a representation created by the artist by activating his imagination and technique and by streaming the energy generated by that previous excitement.
