  • How Carrie Mae Weems uses photography to find her voice by portraying her life that she goes through, the daily life that women go through in domestic affairs. Theirs roles and activities in a household and the generations in it. The kitchen table project takes place in her kitchen using only one lighting source in her pictures as one room. As a domestic space and social living arrangement.
  • Finding my own voice is kind of difficult for me, probably because I haven’t seen enough things that I can experience and take in. I do have things that interest me but I sometimes find it difficult for me to express. But I also have very little confidence in myself. With time and effort I hope I can change that part about myself.
