I liked the article a lot, thanks for posting a link to it. I think whether or not an artist explains him or herself is relative to the work they do and the situation they are in. The work should be first and foremost visually appealing and if the artist wants to discuss, or not discuss, the ins and the outs of his or her work it should be a decision based in honesty. Be honest, don’t bullshit and leave it at that.
