Meeting Grayson Perry and Kansai Yamamoto

THANK YOU,,,
Name dropping is not usually cool, but on a hot summer enchanting evening at the British Museum, stars mingled with the rest of us and made it feel so cool and refreshingly human...
The Manga Fashion show was delightfully amazing bringing together students of the arts from around the world to share with us their 3D amazing visions of what it is to be part of Manga culture opening a fresh perspective on the cultural theme for those less familiar with up and coming youth cultural mediatic developments.

Against this modern futuristic display of phenomenal talent came views which also brought us back to comforting values: Grayson Perry shared his four most cherished rules of success with us:
1- be on time
2- be nice
3- work relentlessly
4- trust your intuition

He said the last one takes years of therapy and that if any of these go missing, success will elude...
Many thanks for reminding us of these essential daily ingredients, and so good to have a chat with you and friends after the show.

I guess one main ingredient present throughout the whole evening was positivity, without which none of this would have ever happen, the power of a positive sharing creative spirit might be so obvious like air and water for artists such as Grayson Perry and Kansai Yamamoto that they never mentioned it directly, yet it was lifting the whole event.

Grayson Perry mentioned the British Museum was an enormous source of cultural exchanges to visit and enjoy on a daily basis and Kansai Yamamoto kindly invited all students and models onto the stage, showing great spirit for cultural exchanges, which to me is the secret positive ingredient for all positive developments, passing on the baton to the younger generation is the best gesture and message to share.

So a big thank you to these very larger than life yet so sharing activists of the creative put to good: Kansai's suit was amazing, portraying a white polar bear trying to climb over an ice patch...
THANK YOU BOTH! and Thank you C. for inviting us... Your creation was out of this world...
