Cindy Sherman was whom me and my collaborative partner decided to use as inspiration.
She is an artist who collaborates with her self, like a second persona. When I first saw her work, (she dresses as other people and takes on their persona for the camera) I thought she was fantasising about being someone else, kind of like Grayson Perry. But instead she just becomes a character, like a actress and performs for the camera.
She inspires us because she was a singular person taking on several persona. she was obsessed with every single character she became. She would step fully into the role, investigating the character for weeks and weeks on end.
The real Cindy Sherman who is rarely photographed.
