People are always trying to find the next groovy thing, and it hasn't gone back to painting... I'd like it to go back to painting. I'm sick of all this photography and video. There's so much of it, it's almost annoying.

Cindy ShermanI think people are more apt to believe photographs, especially if itโs something fantastic. Theyโre willing to be more gullible. Sometimes they want fantasy. Even if they know itโs fake they can believe anything. People are accustomed to being told what to believe in.
Cindy ShermanI didn't want to make 'high' art, I had no interest in using paint, I wanted to find something that anyone could relate to without knowing about contemporary art. I wasn't thinking in terms of precious prints or archival quality; I didn't want the work to seem like a commodity.
