Most photographs, to me, are description, but they lack insight.

A lot of photographers walk around looking for something 'out there,' but I'm very much interested in what's 'in here.'

I think photographers are too polite. There is not enough anger in photography; it's pretty much trivialized.

You can't see fear or lust; you can't photograph someone's anxieties, how disappointment feels. Photographs are approximations.

Because some of my at-home life was rough and lonely, I often looked to escape into my imagination. Science fiction provided a deep well to pull from and was something easily accessible to me.

Whenever any person in the creative field does a film, they think it is going to be of good quality or this is something people will like. The intention is always positive.

You want to be taken seriously as an artist and not just known as 'that girl wrestler who sings.' So you want to go out and stand on your own legs. But at the same time, I don't negate the fact that without everything I've accomplished in wrestling, I wouldn't have been given so many really cool opportunities on the music side.

Painting and sculpture are very archaic forms. It's the only thing left in our industrial society where an individual alone can make something with not just his own hands, but brains, imagination, heart maybe.
