“Me and my dad (Ragen), showing him a drawing of “the prodigal son returns” from art school (Pratt). My dad makes art for himself, and for us. So did my great-grandmother. When it was necessary for everything to be called feminist art in the 70s for the movement, I was already familiar with women art. My examples were never people who were in the market, and it was never my intent.” – SMW.

“Bisexual beef and self-suckers. Dad birthdays. Inches magazine. False bottom drawer with heterosexual porn. It didn’t make a difference – I just wanted to know what sex was. Christine’s anal fever. Hetero porn is still quite problematic, but for gay men they have to watch themselves to learn about themselves. Maybe it’s different now. But I learnt a lot, they were affirmative.” – SMW.
