Translation / English

It means putting one's heart and soul into it.

If someone ask what stage of the process they mean when they say they put their heart and soul into something, most people will think they are referring to the production stage.

However, for me, it means how did it come into the world and who told you about it, did I discover it myself, or who bought it, where and how.

I think that these processes are just as important as the creative process.

Translation / English

That's the story of what it is that puts the soul into the thing.

If somebody is asked what are the steps of the process, what is the step of putting the soul into things, most people might have in mind the step of production.

But what I think about is: How does the thing that I create get released and who did you hear it from?
Did you do the digging yourself?
How and from whom did you buy it?

I think that what happens in between is just as important as creating it.
