Happy Birthday: Lily Cole

There is a degree of role-playing in modeling, for sure, and you’re also in a high-profile job – there are lots of similarities for sure. But when I’m acting, I’ve got to try and be present, and I’ve got to be emotionally committed to a character, both physically and intellectually.

The relationship between art and a job is not quite linear, but I really love any and all manifestations of art, really respect any kind of artistic impulse, whether it’s paintings and sculptures or really good filmmaking or music. I really see the relationships between these different mediums as very fluid.
