There are going to be people doing the talking and people who get talked about, choose, which one do you want to be?
David LaChapelleEvery culture has beauty and decorations of body. This is not of itself superficial, this is very human. Decorating when it becomes out of balance, when it becomes about the materialism, about how many shoes, how many handbags, how expensive they are, and the status, then it's no longer just about an expression or looking beautiful, that's more about 'I HAVE MONEY, I AM RICH'. It felt out of balance.
David LaChapelleI didnโt see any difference between being a photographer or being an artist. I didnโt make those boundaries. If someone wants to think itโs art, thatโs great, but Iโll let history decide.
David LaChapelleI love fashion and beauty and all those things, I still do but I think that it has changed the shift, that the greed is ruling the planet right now.
