I'm a text artist. It's an unsung art form because it's so ahead of its time.

In my experience of living, for a time, in the underbelly of society, I spent a lot of time in various holding cells.

As a New Yorker, or wherever I am, I just want to know I can get our of the house in five minutes if I have to and not have to spend a bunch of time obsessing in the mirror, trying on a million different options. Now, I just know what works.

As a woman, I've learned that having a uniform of your staples or setting your look and saying what distinguishes you - like red lips or hair or whatever - leaves so much time for the rest of the day.

Remember when we didn't live in the future? When we were young, it was not the future yet.

It's a wild thing, that people have the ability to help each other by just relating to one another.

There's something great about all your worst fears coming true and being said about you. There's a tremendous liberation on some level.
