Interpretation

Mischka 2002

As the United Buddy Bear was standing in my studio, he looked around in a sweet and friendly way.

A big, proud and beautiful bear.

My bear is transcendental.

No longer here.

On the way. In search.

Transcendental and open.

My bear is for everybody.

Let us love each other.

And respect.
