I left my hometown Vienna when I was 27-years old to move to New York City, the troughly multi-ethnical urban experience of our time. Here endless ideas of aesthic converged. Every style of fashion was either created or developed: the minmal, the opulent, the outrageos, the outlandish, the rediculas and the refind. At this moment of my life I have lost my enthusasim for the so called avangarde, which I see as the new bourgeois conformism. Reduction has been the iron law for decades. Purism has degenerated into the common place. I belive we have to, once again, to go back to our roots before we can allow ourselves to look ahead.
