Martino Genchi

Every moment required a thorough and special concentration, and this wouldn’t have been possible in any other situation. Jorge’s energy pushed us through the boundaries of personal crisis, forcing us to abandon established roads and extend our sights to new possibilities. As he says, artists are antennae. They have enormous responsibilities for what they pick up and the way in which they pass it on – both towards others and towards themselves.
It is important to really love what you do, whether it be art or something else. When this happens obstacles do not exist, and the quality of the work comes out naturally.
This is in some ways connected with its purity.
