Tags: Film, Happens, VillageI don't like directing a lot of people. So trying to keep things really simple and elegant is my preferred way of working.
Tags: Simple, Trying, WorkingI really like the structure of my body. It moves well, it looks good, it photographs well, it understands gesture and nuance.
Tags: Body, Good, LooksI come from a family of Mississippi sharecroppers just a few generations away from slavery, and I experienced a lot of racism growing up - you can't avoid that if you're a person of color in this country.
Tags: Country, Family, RacismI emerged in that incredible moment in the 1980s when all kinds of social questions about subjectivity and objectivity, about who was making, who was looking.
Tags: Making, Moment, SocialI got my first camera when I was 21 - my boyfriend gave it to me for my birthday - but at that point politics was my life, and I viewed the camera as a tool for expressing my political beliefs rather than as an art medium.
Tags: Birthday, Life, PoliticsI think that still, for the most part, even in 2010, the vast majority of museum shows and gallery shows and gallerists are pretty much dominated by men. So having a sense of what women are up to, for me, frankly, is very, very important.
Tags: Men, Pretty, WomenIn terms of digital photography, I continue to print and use film for the most part. I still shoot with film, 21/4 film specifically, and I love it. I love it because I know what it does, how it really responds to light.
