I apologize if someone has mentioned this already (the last e-mails dealing
with this are pretty heavy) but maybe, as an artist, one creates and then
immediately leaves the creation vulnerable and thin-skinned into the world of
public criticism. If both the artist and the viewer see it as such, then
there can be no arguments as to who is right or wrong with interpretation,
because what each person says is independent and a given.
