Yes, I need to be fed but the need to be loved by friends has been as important to me than any lover I've had all my life. This is part of the reasons that my lovers don't stay because they are jealous of how much I care about my friends.

One of the major things I really want to work on now is female rage because that's not dealt with at all - and I have a lot of it.

I've been alone for about eight years and it doesn't bother me.

In a way, it [my style] is an homage. But I didn't really know about it at first. But then when I started living in Berlin in the early '90s, I started getting ID and Dazed and Confused. I was shocked how close things were to my work.

I also met Dominique Sanda, who I always worshipped.

I also photographed Maggie Cheung - but these didn't develop into a friendship either.

If I do continue to do fashion, I would want to radicalise it.
