But since 2018 I have started to paint. To get back to the creative life and the world of culture. That has given me back my real happiness and the rich color of life.</P><P>-I realize I am a very privilege man. But I am also a self made man. None in my family are in the culture world. I haven’t inherited any money. I have just used the opportunities life given me. Being lucky to live in an historic time, there the leading star was all human rights and equality.</P><P>-Unfortunately this fundament is declining in our time. The leading star for people in the privileged world now adays, seems to be the self-realization. But I think the self-realization comes with a bitter taste, if it is depending on other peoples misfortune. I really hate the walls, real and imaginary, witch are built to prevent people from changing their lives, as you can see in my painting ”I have a Dream” or ”Our Proud History”.</P><P>Are your artistic work a continuing of your fight to make the world a better place?</P><P>-No, answer Lars Mullback rapidly, I think the world</P></Sect><P>Artist: Lars Mullback: www.mullback,se, info@mullback.se, Instagram: artmullback, Facebook: mullback</P><Sect><Figure><ImageData src="bilder/artikel MOOD VT 2021 XML_img_6.jpg"/>is good enough, at least for me. I’m happily married and we have a daughter. That I hope, can be seen in my art too. Birds, bright colors and nature represent happiness and thebeauty what makesthe world worth living, to me. Not the fight for justiceand for the less fortuned. That fight is something we just have to do for our cons-cience, because we are humans. The art, our culture, makes life worth living. Look at my art. I hope it makes you feel, think and enjoy.
