More From Cindy Sherman
I Like Making Images That From A Distance Seem Kind Of Seductive, Colorful, Luscious And Engaging, And Then You Realize What You're Looking At Is Something Totally Opposite. It Seems Boring To Me To Pursue The Typical Idea Of Beauty, Because That Is The Easiest And The Most Obvious Way To See The World. It's More Challenging To Look At The Other Side.

Everyone Thinks These Are Self-portraits But They Aren't Meant To Be. I Just Use Myself As A Model Because I Know I Can Push Myself To Extremes, Make Each Shot As Ugly Or Goofy Or Silly As Possible.

I Feel I'm Anonymous In My Work. When I Look At The Pictures, I Never See Myself; They Aren't Self-portraits. Sometimes I Disappear.
