0:06 - 0:10[卡麗·梅·維姆斯：「餐桌系列」]
-
0:12 - 0:14大約是1990年，我猜...
-
0:15 - 0:17我在偏僻的地方工作，
-
0:18 - 0:20住在一個小鎮，
-
0:24 - 0:27一直在思考很多關於
-
0:27 - 0:29這究竟意味著...
-
0:31 - 0:35它意味的有點是發展自己的聲音。
-
0:36 - 0:39所以我做了這套作品，
-
0:39 - 0:41「餐桌系列」。
-
0:42 - 0:45一開始是因為好奇，看會有什麼反應
-
0:45 - 0:48在我自己的感覺中什麼需要發生——
-
0:48 - 0:49什麼必須要存在。
-
0:50 - 0:54什麼不會只是一個非裔美國女性的聲音，
-
0:54 - 0:58而是什麼會成為，更一般地說，女性的聲音。
-
1:02 - 1:04我讓她們全部在我自己的廚房——
-
1:04 - 1:05全都在我自己的房子——
-
1:05 - 1:07使用單一光源，
-
1:07 - 1:10掛在餐桌上頭。
-
1:11 - 1:16不過是稍稍打開可能性的這扇門，
-
1:16 - 1:20在我自己的環境中實際能做到的，
-
1:20 - 1:22每當我選擇了，
-
1:22 - 1:24以及我要的方式，
-
1:24 - 1:26在這非常具體的...
-
1:26 - 1:30或在這個非常特殊的地方，現場和時刻。
-
1:30 - 1:31我愛這個系列。
-
1:31 - 1:33這實際上是白金系列。

Episode #138: Filmed in her Syracuse studio, artist Carrie Mae Weems discusses the impetus for her work "The Kitchen Table Series" (1990), a photographic investigation of a single domestic space in which the artist staged scenes of "the battle around the family" between women and men, friends and lovers, parents and children.
Carrie Mae Weems's vibrant explorations of photography, video, and verse breathe new life into traditional narrative forms—social documentary, tableaux, self-portrait, and oral history. Eliciting epic contexts from individually framed moments, Weems debunks racist and sexist labels, examines the relationship between power and aesthetics, and uses personal biography to articulate broader truths. Whether adapting or appropriating archival images, restaging famous news photographs, or creating altogether new scenes, she traces an indirect history of the depiction of African Americans for more than a century.
