“The people in L.A. do orient themselves to light. I used to call it 'Tan Fascist Culture.' Everyone there is tanned, wears dark sunglasses, looks like a movie star even when they're not.”

“Generally, we use light to illuminate other things. I like the thingness, the materiality of light itself. So it feels like it's occupying the space, making a plane, being something that was there, not just passing through. Because light is just passing through. I make these spaces that seem to arrest it for our perception.”

“I'm not a movie star. I'm just an actress.”

“I don't think I ever went down that movie star path. I always enjoy taking a 90-degree turn from the last thing I did.”

“I think it's so funny when people think they can't control a movie star. They can. We're just women, you know.”
