"Many of my photograms take on the rooms they’re exhibited in as a viewing device, where the viewers can actually see themselves seeing and can have a clearer understanding of the object’s construction—as well as of their own perception. I’d like people to have agency with the work and their experiences, to develop a deeper sense of their relationships to space, light, color, and, of course, photography."

-Liz Deschenes, quoted in Gabriel H. Sanchez, "Liz Deschenes talks about her retrospective in Boston," Artforum, 25 July 2016 (online)
