Rebirth.

The prequel to "The Artist and his Manager" in which the Artist learns of his ability to interpret great tragedy into noteworthy works of art. After this rebirth, however, his desire to continuously create attracts him to frequent disaster, soon enough splitting him into two separate entities- the Artist and the Manager.

As shown in 'The Artist and his Manager,' the Manager is a selfis
h, underdeveloped being only concerned with milking the Artist dry. However, with the plot established in this painting, the artist is fully aware and content with what is happening to him.

The Artist is so accustomed to dying and being reborn that he lacks what life can give him. Will he overcome this cycle and learn that secret? Find out soon.
