Excerpt from the interview

Félix de la Concha video- and audio-taped his portrait sessions. A brief split-screen excerpt appears below, presenting the sitter as well as the ongoing work of the artist.

Transcription: "The fact that I went through much more adversity as a young boy, I escaped with my family, went through a lot of changes. Those are incredible education for me, in that sense. And that gave me a lot of inner confidence as well as a certain resourcefulness, certain confidence that I can do it, you know, with changing circumstances."
