“[W]hen I picked up a camera, I was really interested in how a camera could lie, how it could deceive us. I was very interested in having a camera be a tool that didn’t speak about the truth, but spoke more about my fantasies, or even my personal idea about the truth.” —Laurie Simmons

Continuing on the theme of women photographers who use deception in photography to tell larger truths about society, today we are bringing you this video with artist Laurie Simmons. This is the last week to catch Simmons’ solo exhibition at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, Laurie Simmons: Big Camera/Little Camera, on through January 27, 2019. If you can’t make it to Fort Worth, the exhibition travels next to the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, where it will open on February 23, 2019. In this video, Simmons discusses her career, feminism and gender, and how her sense of place guides her art.
