KALTBLUT: Looking at your designs I see<br />
lots of color. Which color is your favorite<br />
and why?<br />
TATA CHRISTIANE: It s difficult to say. The<br />
colors are a relation for me. Then it always<br />
depends on the quality of the relation.<br />
KALTBLUT: Most of your dresses are for<br />
girls and boys. Unisex. Who is the typical<br />
Tata Christiane customer? Who is wearing<br />
your clothing?<br />
TATA CHRISTIANE: It is a quite large crowd,<br />
very different. Androgynous. Can be classic<br />
and casual or extreme and very colorful. I<br />
did not find any rules in it yet. Maybe people<br />
who are thinking that they can wear it now<br />
instead of in another life.<br />
KALTBLUT: Can you remember when you<br />
saw someone with your design walking<br />
on the street for the first time? How did<br />
you feel then?<br />
TATA CHRISTIANE: It was in Paris, a woman<br />
in the street with a pink pullover, quite extreme,<br />
a pullover which integrates a black<br />
and white painting on textile, done by the<br />
artist Ian Padgham, who I was sharing the<br />
atelier with at the time. It was really surrealistic<br />
because of the piece itself and the<br />
casual context. It touched me a lot.<br />
KALTBLUT: How does a normal work day<br />
look like at Tata Christiane? You have a<br />
studio in Berlin right?<br />
TATA CHRISTIANE: Yes, a nice location near<br />
a park. It s really quiet. Well, it depends on<br />
the period and the schedule, but usually I<br />
wake up quite early, I start to work at home,<br />
and then I go to the studio all day, and many<br />
times I work in the evening as well.<br />
KALTBLUT: Your are not from Berlin. But<br />
you live and work here. Why Berlin? And<br />
what makes Berlin the place it is for you?<br />
TATA CHRISTIANE: I came 5 years ago to<br />
Berlin with Hanri Gabriel to do a residence<br />
for our band Aniaetleprogrammeur. We<br />
loved the feeling that we got here, then we<br />
stayed.<br />
“<br />
The last collection<br />
is inspired by the<br />
book One Hundred<br />
Years of Solitude by<br />
Gabriel Garcia Marquez<br />
and by extension<br />
inspired by the<br />
expression of Magical<br />
realism, created<br />
by German art critic<br />
Franz Roh in 1925,<br />
expressing a genre<br />
”<br />
of fiction.<br />
