I really keep my life very simple.

The idea's the idea: It's about what you do, and not who you are.

I do have traditional values: I believe in being a good person and being polite.

I hope to do a visual for every

I don’t know if I’m a tortured soul, but I was born heartbroken. I remember feeling it when I was so young. 
 I was like, ‘Mum, it hurts.’

I've been inspired by people's work, but I never grew up with posters on my bedroom wall or obsessed with one person.

Loneliness comes with life.
