Attila Kopryva, one of the artists-participant, said: "I offered the audience one of my works – ‘Fairy-tale Hill’. I chose the one that was quite clear by content and performed in the worked out technique. I hope that this work will attract the attention of a potential benefactor with its ease. Such an initiative is very good because supporting children is a noble cause that should be close to everyone. I shall note whatever work is chosen, this will be a pleasant memory of the good deed he joined."
