I'm inspired by looking at art, by looking at precedent. Looking is what you have to do if you want to make things, so you develop a critical eye.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I look at everything in an artistic way.
Once you learn to look at architecture not merely as an art more or less well or more or less badly done, but as a social manifestation, the critical eye becomes clairvoyant.
I always have a different way of looking at things.
What I do, basically, is look at things from different angles. That is what I do on stage comedically, and that is what I do in art. I was always fascinated by the structure of things, why things work this way and not that way. So I like to see how things behave if you change the point of view.
When you look at art made by other people, you see what you need to see in it.
To look is one thing, to see is another thing; to see is very difficult, normally; to look is to try to see. I have looked and I hope I have seen.
Until I began to learn to draw, I was never much interested in looking at art.
When I am putting looks together, I dare myself to make something work. I always look for the most interesting silhouette or something that's a little off, but I have to figure it out. I have to make it me. I think that's the thrill in fashion.
I think having a dispassionate eye is a good way of making art. When you don't know the structures of a place, you are unencumbered.
I am someone who doesn't pay so much attention to how I am looking. I get so involved in what I am doing, so I overlook that.
