It's Horrible When People Are Only Interested

I Am In A Key Moment. I Kind Of Understand That I Have To Use My Work More Completely Without Being Ashamed.

If I Have Done Anything, It Is To Make Ugly Appealing. In Fact, Most Of My Work Is Concerned With Destroying—or At Least Deconstructing—conventional Ideas Of Beauty, Of The Generic Appeal Of The Beautiful, Glamorous, Bourgeois Woman. Fashion Fosters Clichés Of Beauty, But I Want To Tear Them Apart.

What Interests Me Most Is When A Work Of Art Is No Longer Just An Object, But Also Touches Reality And Life.

When I Talk With People, I Don't Even See What They Are Wearing . . . No, I Recognize It If It's Something Particularly Nice And Interesting. I See The Exception.

I Was A Communist, But Being Left-wing Was Fashionable. I Was No Different From Thousands Of Middle-class Kids.
