"You know, art can be something which can really disempower people, or it can be a vehicle which can empower people."

"My work is not about fantasizing about characters or situations. Some people have thought that I’ve always fantasized about the characters I do, about being a femme fatale or whoever in my film stills. But when I’m doing the characters, I really don’t feel like it’s something that grows out of my fantasy, my own dreams."
-Cindy Sherman
