Not Synced
when I was 22 I was like a 14 year old
-
Not Synced
and I was somewhat just doing
-
Not Synced
what my mother said to me
-
Not Synced
what I should do
-
Not Synced
I was more a dreamer
-
Not Synced
I was... I did not really know what to do
-
Not Synced
on this 22nd birthday I went with my mother
-
Not Synced
through Hamburg, through town, and she asked me
-
Not Synced
"what do you want for birthday present"
-
Not Synced
and I thought a little bit and then I said
-
Not Synced
"I want some paper and some pencil or pastels
-
Not Synced
and I want to start doing painting/drawings"
-
Not Synced
and my mother looked at me and said
-
Not Synced
"why you want to do drawings?
-
Not Synced
You were never interesting in doing art."
-
Not Synced
even at that moment we didn't say 'art'
-
Not Synced
"you were never interested in drawing."
-
Not Synced
and we have not so much money
-
Not Synced
and it costs a lot of money, this big papers
-
Not Synced
and but then she bought this and from that day on,
-
Not Synced
I started to paint, to draw,
and to make sculptures.

Not Synced
(noise of rushing water)
-
Not Synced
(off screen)
"when did you find out that images
-
Not Synced
play an important role in your life?"
-
Not Synced
when I fell into a lake
when I was six years old
-
Not Synced
and I fell to the bottom and I saw
-
Not Synced
probably the most beautiful world
I've ever seen
-
Not Synced
and it was colorful, and there was light,
-
Not Synced
and these plants were moving
-
Not Synced
I mean I see it regularly,
I see it constantly almost in my mind,
-
Not Synced
in my mind's eye
