I recently interviewed Knut Steen for Aftenposten. He is one of my favourite artists. I've also been to his place in Italy, seen him work. This time we met at Kampen in Oslo, where he grew up.
He just turned 85 and is still working every day. Here's some quotes for inspiration:
"Beauty is the only thing that can save the world"
"I'll work until the day I die. I never give up without a fight".
