Well, what I'm doing is really clothing. I'm not doing sculpture.

The purpose - where I start - is the idea of use. It is not recycling, it's reuse.

I have always been interested in conducting research that yielded new methods by which to make cloth, and in developing new materials that combine craftsmanship and new technology. But the most important thing for me is to show that, ultimately, technology is not the most important tool; it is our brains, our thoughts, our hands, our bodies, which express the most essential things.

I have worked with several dance companies.

Of course there are many ways we can reuse something. We can dye it. We can cut it. We can change the buttons. Those are other ways to make it alive. But this is a new step to use anything - hats, socks, shirts. It's the first step in the process

I very much like dance and dancers.

By the way, Marilyn Monroe was a size 14.
