For Me, Art Is About

If I Have Done Anything, It Is To Make Ugly Appealing. In Fact, Most Of My Work Is Concerned With Destroying—or At Least Deconstructing—conventional Ideas Of Beauty, Of The Generic Appeal Of The Beautiful, Glamorous, Bourgeois Woman. Fashion Fosters Clichés Of Beauty, But I Want To Tear Them Apart.

Now, I'm Not Saying I'm Fashionable, But There Are Sociological Interests That Matter To Me, Things That Are Theoretical, Political, Intellectual And Also Concerned With Vanity And Beauty That We All Think About But That I Try To Mix Up And Translate Into Fashion.

I Respect My Work. But Also I Think It's Very Superficial.

I Would Say That Clothes Are An Excuse For Living In The World.

When I Talk With People, I Don't Even See What They Are Wearing . . . No, I Recognize It If It's Something Particularly Nice And Interesting. I See The Exception.
