Quotes

"There are people whose attraction to Francescas work is bound up with their sense of her tragic story, and without the tragic story they might not be so interested in the work, her father told an interviewer. 'But I dont think that, as a way of reading her work, this is particularly productive. Asked why she photographed herself obsessively, Woodman said simply, 'Its a matter of convenience I am always available. In the months before her death, Woodman had become depressed. She was rarely satisfied with her work and was haunted by a sense of inadequacy; her father says that, although her career was progressing fast, 'if youre into fast, its never fast enough . In January 1981 Woodman threw herself out of the window of her New York flat and died. Although she didnt leave a note, in a letter to her best friend shortly before she died, Woodman wrote, 'My life at this point is like very old coffee-cup sediment and I would rather die young leaving various accomplishments, ie some work, my friendship with you, some other artefacts intact, instead of pell-mell erasing all of these delicate things."
