Live from Nexus Hall: Linder Sterling
Artist and icon Linder Sterling discusses the power of punk in this episode of CHANEL Connects. Using a scalpel, glue, and found images—from lips to sports cars and octopuses—Linder’s photomontages have transformed the idea of glamour for over half a century. With her debut in Japan at Kyotographie and CHANEL Nexus Hall, Linder connects with Yana Peel, President of Arts, Culture & Heritage at the House. The conversation moves from the energy of Liverpool’s Beatlemania in the 60s to her legendary meat-dress moment in Manchester, from the Tokyo of today to the Germaine Greer words that forever rewired her brain.
