"Sure, there are some people around the world who copy and paste pictures and works of others and try to make money of it, but so what? I'm just thinking about what I would feel if they did this with my art. Could I really feel offended by someone eho estimates some of my works so precious that he thinks these works will earn him a living? Perhaps I should wish him good luck and thank him for looking at my creations with such admiring eyes.
I think, all art is about sharing, and possibly there is really nothing that I can call
my art or
my creation. Well, it's nice to live in this time in this special place, where I can have access to this thing called internet - a vehicle that allows me to cross borders in a stunning speed and to communicate with nearly everyone on this planet, as far as she or he is also settled in this place called cyberspace. But I don't know anything about an original decision of myself to be here today, and I'm sure I didn't create myself. I'm the work of art of another, and I'm just playing the fool I am."
