Beautiful and heartfelt, also I really love the piano in the background too, it fits the mood of the film so well. And I love the questions you ask. Makes me realize that I waited until midlife to make art because I didn't think it had meaning. But that's the way we're made to feel today about anything that doesn't have a concrete effect on the world. After a few years and many struggles, I've come to the conclusion that making art matters just by itself. I think it matters because it gives a voice, an expression, to the invisible. To things beyond this life that cannot be expressed otherwise. I think it's a service, though it cannot be measured.

Love this, Kika! "Practice any art, music, singing, dancing, acting, drawing, painting, sculpting, poetry, fiction, essays, reportage, no matter how well or badly, not to get money and fame, but to experience becoming, to find out what's inside you, to make your soul grow." - Kurt Vonnegut

This is amazing. I loved witnessing your beautiful creativity in many forms. Making art for art's sake. I love your thoughts and questions in this video. <3

Perfect. To create is to be the most human form of human IMO. So deeply ingrained in human nature that so many of us forget. How lucky we (you) are to be able to exercise it so freely and openly. Thank you for sharing.

So lovely. Your art expresses in so many forms - painting, animation, film-making, music, writing - the deep question we all ask, what does this ALL mean? Nothing and everything. Truth. Thank you!

I love it all, the imagery, your narration, (the thoughts) and the animation. Perfect!
