The famous actor had received great backlash and eventually said, "The exhibition was not mine. It was another artist's exhibition, I only took part in one of her works. It was exhibited on the 16th of April and it was the first solo exhibition of my then-girlfriend. I could not foresee where the reactions would lead, that they would lead to femicides. I experienced a mental lapse. I had apologized afterwards because I could not foresee how much it would trigger the dynamics and wounds of society, but as far as I understand, this apology was not accepted either."
