When I began lifting images like Wonder Woman from television in the late 1970s, I was looking for a place where I could still change the way we "live." I had come out of architecture, and I thought TV much more defined the way we occupied space. I had seen artists take images from popular culture and transform them into other mediums, but I wanted to use the medium on itself. That was the most important thing to me. Warhol chose to occupy the media with his investment in its imagery and later with his magazine, films, and cable-TV program. I chose--perhaps this had to do with being a female artist examining stereotypes of women--to reoccupy it. Nobody had really believed they had the power to talk back to the media before.--AS TOLD TO JOHANNA BURTON
