-The most spectacular show you ever worked on ?
For extreme emotion, Dior Homme. For glitz and glamour, it’s Victoria’s Secret, and for prestige, the 40th anniversary of YSL.

-Have you always had an eye for beauty ?
Yes. You need at least one moment of beauty per day or you die. If you are gifted in art or design, then you must give emotions to others so they can lift their heads out of the consumerist society we live in,it’s your duty, really. For the Lyon Biennual for example—I designed a huge screen that was suspended in air with clouds passing by. Everyone had a different reaction to it. Someone even said that it reminded them of the Petit Prince
