I've always been very tied to language.

Fashion is everywhere and about everything. It is folly, vanity and the fun of it all. It is disguise, innuendo, and cunning. It is mean, gorgeous and ambitious, and definitely the last word for the next few seconds.

All the gossip and craziness becomes a kind of sustained narrative which, in turn, can become history. It's scary.

Money talks. It makes art. It determines what food we eat, whether we are cured or die, and what shoes we wear.

Prominence is cool, but when the delusion kicks in it can be a drag. Especially if you choose to surround yourself with friends and not acolytes.

I think what I'm trying to do is create moments of recognition. To try to detonate some kind of feeling or understanding of lived experience.

You make history when you do business.
