At this event, I hope everyone will somehow be drawn into the hidden universe of an artist and appreciates the chaos. How powerfully one can be impacted in just 20 minutes while witnessing a creation of something out of nothing. Cheers to the celebration of art, togetherness, and sharing passions.

It's hard to make a living in the arts, there's a lot of worry and pressure, and not every project succeeds. Whether it's money, health, or love, anything can go wrong. Anyone who is sane would just quit. There is no point in continuing to do something you don't love. You've got to get crazy, you've got to go full tilt, Bozo.
