I just watched Sally Mann Art 21 again. I started with intention of watching the segments that wouldn't play in class yesterday. They won't play for me either so I don't think it was a school computer issue. Anyway, I decided to watch Art 21 again because I cannot hear that darn projector at school. Turns out I was able to activate the closed captioning! I was near tears at some of the statments made that I would've never "heard" had I not watched it again. The stories about how she embraced the broken lenses and scratches. I complain all the time when I find a tiny flaw. Maybe I should embrace the subtle differences, like she did! The statements about her upbringing and how that molded her as a parent. The statements from her daughter about how her work was her Bible or her spirituality. Sally Mann is awe inspiring! I want to learn more!
