I love working with people and having them bring something to the table that I couldn't. I think one of my favourite artists to work with has been Kucka.

I guess I say this for younger actors out there: you have to be brave, and you have to be ready to fail, and that's the only way you can be unique. So when a director is confident enough in what they're doing, and they allow their actors to be brave and bring in stuff, the more likely it's going to work out okay.

I think the relationship is very tenuous between fashion and art. Many designers have built relationships with artists, which is not something I personally did.
