I think that limitations are the most important part of any art form

I'm not a woman! Let's make that very clear! Oh I don't know, maybe I am. I am an American woman. Or 65 percent of me is.

Unfortunately, on one or both of my shoulders sits lots of anxiety and that is a controlling factor in my life.

That's the great thing about entering a convent: There are things that you simply can't do, so you don't have to worry about them

I'm fighting against my will to control. I think that is what I am doing. I would like to accept things in life, in all matters of life I would like to accept, but it's so difficult. I think we all have this struggle.

I would say that I am a poor Christian; I'm not a believer. It was this idea very early in my life that life on Earth, nature or man could not be a creation of a merciful God.

My films generally center around thousands of pictures being flashed in rapid succession to create the illusion of motion.
