I have never been someone who likes looking back. I’m always much more interested in what’s next and that, you may be surprised to hear, is how I have approached curating The 90s: Art and Fashion.
I was having lunch with Maria Balshaw, an old friend and the former director of Tate, and told her we should do something together one day. She said she had the perfect idea: the 1990s. I was there and part of the whole scene, becoming fashion director of i-D in 1991, when I was 18, and within two seconds I had said yes. I knew I wanted to tell the story through my eyes and to look back in order to look forward.
