pGs 6 question INTERVIEW with MELISSA MATOS
from WEAREPOWERHOUSE
pGs < INSPIRATION ?
M > Confining situations + sweet release. Monumental people + moments.
Gangster rap + whinos. Synchronicity + things in threes.
pGs < LIFE ? STYLE ?
M > I pay awkward and unusual attention to what other people perceive as
ridiculous and minute. I try to find reason and logic in everything.
Sometimes I find it and sometimes I don’t. I tend to see the numbers 11:11
in irrational moments which often become congruent through inebriation
and/or forced objective situations. I believe that everything is ephemeral
and fleeting and I treat life and objects in that same way. I believe that
power can be encapsulated or manifested through the things around us.
Concepts are a manifestation of detail and I am interested in how fashion
relates to these environments. What isn’t so relevant is the material but
the process in which it is created. Same is for fashion; for style. It is
the way it is carried forth and how it is adapted by our own ideologies. How
tensions or opposing elements find unique balance within eachother. Its not
so much about following specific trends but mirroring the perception of
oneself onto the world. Its about balance. To me, its ironic yet serious,
playful yet meticulous, its picky but still really forgiving. Style is
relative.
pGs < No Go 's
M > No regrets. No pretention. There’s no time for it.
pGs < LOVE ?
M > Universal Consciousness.
pGs < HATE ?
M > I’m pretty cheeky, sometimes too much I think.
pGs > FUTURE ?
M > I am looking forward. It will be here soon.
thank you and see you soon in BERLIN
