"Art making is a form of alchemy, in a way, because you are trying…to make gold from nothing. When it works very well is when you manage to turn the ordinary into the extraordinary."
"Jens F. (114, 115)" (2002)
"In the Helga pictures I set out to create a total portrait of a young man using Andrew Wyeth’s Helga paintings as a template to explore how one defines someone in images using a description of femininity to describe a man, so that you start to wonder with the Wyeth portraits whether it is a feminine pose or an artist’s pose. Is it Wyeth’s pose, is it Helga’s pose?"
- Collier Schorr
