It’s mostly the inspiration that finds me! I make myself completely available to it, like an antenna. I only come in when it’s time to bring the signal to life. couLd you eXpLain to us one of your scarf-tying techniques? Grab a two-metre long piece of cotton fabric lengthwise, about 10 cm from the left end with your left hand and about 70 cm from the right end with your right hand. There should be about 60 cm separating your two hands. Next, place the 60 cm long part at the back of your head, after bending forward. Once the fabric is in place, pull it across your forehead by placing the 10 cm part underneath the right part. Hold it all in place with your right fingers on your forehead. Next, pass the rest of the fabric behind your head by bringing it up above your head. With your left hand, grab the fabric behind your head and twist it. While twisting, wrap the fabric around your head until it holds well. Fix it all in place by tucking in the ends. Finally, wrap up the fabric in the front. TEEN’ART Magazine - Roots
