I believe in art that is connected to real human feeling, that extends itself beyond the limits of the art world to embrace all people who are striving for alternatives in an increasingly dehumanized world. I am trying to make art that relates to the deepest and most mythic concerns of human kind and I believe that, at this moment of history, feminism is humanism.

Donald, my husband, considers himself a feminist.

Don't give up. It's really important to trust your impulses as an artist no matter what anybody else says.

There's no question that many more women artists are showing worldwide now than they were when I was a young woman, and that's really great.

Remember our heritage is our power; we can know ourselves and our capacities by seeing that other women have been strong.

I think what's important is to give space to the range of human experience.
