"Collages
was inspired by seeing Varda work with his little
bits of material. I began to think about the people
that I knew in Los Angeles and they suddenly formed
a pattern of dreamers. They were all absolutely
possessed by some myth or some dream so I put
them all together with others not form Los Angeles,
like Nina de la Primavera who was a sort of Ophelia
and a woman who fabulated. I put them all together
and that formed a collage of dreamers who couldn't
possibly talk to each other because each one was
pursuing his own fantasy. So they were like little
pieces in a collage. They never absolutely could
meet each other, but each one was completely possessed
by a different kind of fantasy. I had the Japanese
woman, and Varda also was one of the characters,
creating his own world. When I started I couldn't
see any design or pattern or anything. But then
I suddenly realized that the pattern and theme
was a collage. (72-D)" -A
