I always believe in doing new things and using new materials that I have never used or that I didn't like for a long time.

I always have this idea to create and display activities somewhere else around the world, but in fact it's been very difficult since the start, as you have to find the right place that can represent, or could be as significant as, your ideals. It rarely happens.

You cannot do something just for the money. You have to do things you believe in and eventually you will make money.

I think more and more, if you live in the current world - and live internationally - it's all a mix of interests, and the same people who are interested in fashion are also interested in movies, art, and culture.

I was a communist, but being left-wing was fashionable. I was no different from thousands of middle-class kids.

What interests me most is when a work of art is no longer just an object, but also touches reality and life.

Craziness in a shoe is great - you can have much more freedom, you can exaggerate and it doesn't feel stupid. But to have too much craziness near your face, that would just feel weird.
