Artist Mary Frank - at 73, a survivor of the Blitz and being put in a mental institution by her father when she told her father she aimed to marry an older man when asked about the role of the artist:

"To comfort the dead, awaken the living, to know the migration seasons of birds and fish, to know the human immigrations of the past and right now," she says. "To be able to use experiences and transform them ... to make the eyes of children widen, to give courage, and never be afraid of tenderness or the absurd and to gather joy."
