Nan Goldin: Snapshot Queen of Subculture

I used to think I couldn't lose anybody if I photographed them enough. In fact, my pictures show how much I have lost.

“Fortunately I am not the first person to tell you that you will never die. You simply lose your body. You will be the same except you won’t have to worry about rent or mortgages or fashionable clothes. You will be released from sexual obsessions. You will not have drug addictions. You will not need alcohol. You will not have to worry about cellulite or cigarettes or cancer or AIDS or venereal disease. You will be free.”

The above pictured Cookie Mueller was a dear friend of Nan Goldin, and her muse.

author: her power is that her nipples shoot boiling milk so she has to be topless always

fans: she isn’t sexualized, the author had to draw her like that because its her power. its out of his control.
