DURAN LANTINK WAS THE DESIGNER DU JOUR before being chosen by the legend himself, Jean Paul Gaultier, to succeed him at the helm of his maison. It's the job a million people would kill for, and the Dutch designer didn't hesitate: he temporarily closed the shutters of his award-winning namesake label, left Amsterdam for Paris and claimed his golden ticket.

Marina Abramović, now 77, is still unstoppable. Her enthusiasm for life and continuous experimentation is what keeps her going, and what literally electrifies the screen the instant she connects for this interview. There is no stage, no enormous audience; there is nothing more than the mundanity of a Saturday morning. That’s where the conversation begins, before taking a curious detour as Marina reflects on how technology impacts our lives.

It’s morning in NYC and Alexandra Drewchin aka Eartheater is sitting blissfully in a room covered in pink hues from long sheer drapes hugging her curtain rails, her hair fire red, a molten volcano falling past the shoulders. In a lively conversation we discuss what makes her feel most at peace, how she would construct a future utopia without hate and speak about the power of craft, sex and imagination, plus what’s next for this artist truly in her own lane.
