Perta Cortright has said that all she needs to make work is a computer and that
all the tools and content she needs are available on the internet. Whatever the program, she only uses
the default settings, thereby avoiding invention while championing reuse. The paintings on silk are
images of Cortright that were taken from her webcam video stills. Cortright videos are all self-portraits
entirely free of post-production editing.
