Wrote "Thats me" under every picture of herself growing up in handwriting maturing over time to show how she changed over time
Experimented with makeup
Pictures look "Aggressive"
Used props and makeup
Put figures together to make narratives
Did this for a year
moved to new york
changed to doing just one shot
Wanted to make something that looks mass produced
Make photography that looks like from a movie
Shows lots of emotion
Film was more influential to her than the art world
Criticized because people thought she was making too much fun of hollywood types
Began taking herself out of pictures and made herself a reflection in something
She still had to have herself in the picture somehow
It was harder than using herself because when she used herself she could make it that every picture looked different
Wanted to make really big pieces
Been working since the 70s
only shoots herself
tries on other identities
identity is a self portrait shot from another cultures perspective
