Photographing Kids At The Beach And In The Clubs: A Q&A WIth Artist Rineke Dijkstra

“I was working for magazines and newspapers, and at a certain point I felt that I was an artist … I felt more like an art photographer. I thought maybe I should take a couple months off to think about a project for myself. The last day of the two months that I gave myself to think about everything, I broke my hip in a bike accident. So then I had a lot of time to think [laughs]. And I think that that moment I realized how vulnerable you could be, that something can just happen.”
