An "artist" is open to the planet as a whole, the many nations, the variety of races.
When the public feels inadequate, it is a commentary on the degre of focus necessary to walk a daily line. The open-ness is exactly what the public, those that are not there to cop a lick, is in a museum or gallery to find, not the cork in a hole in space, in the universe.
