"I am an artist in constant learning. When I was little it sounded the same as today. Inner tranquility, love, I believe that life is like that. Artists, poets, musicians, painters are always against our present. We managed to transcend, question, promote non-discrimination and self-love. There has to be a little rain for a rainbow to come out. We all have to learn to dance in the rain. And surely in the process we will dirty our sneakers. Simply Zemmoa."
