It is not an easy task for an artist to give an account of  herself or her art, because she runs the risk of being judged as an eccentric or even a braggart. That especially goes for one who can be deemed an idealist; one who is somewhat unfit for the world of  "action". Our time is very much characterised as being selfish and materialistic, with a set  of values dictated by the media and commercialism. My favorite author, Aldous Huxley, wrote: "If I had to describe Hell, it would be a place without books." I'd like to complete his "Hell Theory." A place without the music of J.S. Bach, Mozart and Debussy, without paintings, sculptures and beautiful buildings would be Hell.
