I used to think that I could never lose anyone if I photographed them enough. In fact, my pictures show me how much I’ve lost.

One of the fashion things I ever did was for Helmut Lang for Visionaire magazine and I used people from all genders. People from the age of 18 - like James King - to people like my friend Sharon [Stone] who's about 50 or older. People of all different shapes and literally all different genders and my boyfriend at the time and his daughter who was 11.

One of my assistants, a British man, says I should find a platform for [cosmetic industry]. Meanwhile I wear make-up.

The things that I look at include Renaissance art. I'm obsessed with churches and paintings of saints.

I'm very flattered when people I respect like my work. It's like a dream of a little kid when somebody I idolised likes my work.

I love all the Hollywood women. I saw all the films when I was a teenager. Jack Smith's "Flaming Creatures".

The complete disregard for the camera's presence indicates its complete saturation in their lives. The subject neither notices nor seems to care that someone has been invited into their private moment.
