Gone Bazaar: Why did you choose to involve yourself in the art & fashion worlds?
Pandemonia Panacea: As an artist I express myself visually, creating my own celebrity: Pandemonia. She is both an artistic intervention and a highly designed personality, a vehicle to comment and interact with our common culture.
