“But it came from the realization that we were different and that society was going to give us a hard time for not following the status quo. We held hands and danced through the madness of our childhood. In fact, the dance It was a kind of super glue that held us together…

“We challenged the Roman Catholic Church, the police, the moral majority and all authority figures who stood in the way of artistic freedom! My brother was at my side.

“He was a painter, a poet and a visionary. I admired him. He had impeccable taste. And a sharp tongue, which he sometimes used against me, but I always forgave him. We climbed together to the highest heights and failed at the lowest points .. “

And he concluded: “The last few years have not been easy. We didn’t talk for a while, but when my brother got sick. We found our way back to each other. I did my best to keep him alive as long as possible.

“He was in a lot of pain towards the end. Once again, we held hands, closed our eyes and danced. Together. I’m glad he’s not hurting anymore. There will never be anyone like him. I know he’s dancing somewhere.”
