As one of the world's preeminent photographers, Sally Mann creates artwork that challenges viewers' values and moral attitudes. Described by Time magazine as "America's greatest photographer," she first came to international prominence in 1992 with Immediate Family, a series of complex and enigmatic pictures of her three children. In SALLY MANN: WHAT REMAINS, director Steve Cantor follows the creation of Mann's same-named series on the myriad aspects of death and decay. Never one to compromise, she reflects on her own personal feelings toward mortality as she continues to examine the boundaries of contemporary photography. At her family farm in Virginia, she is surrounded by her husband and now-grown children, and her willingness to reveal her artistic process allows the viewer to gain exclusive entrance to her world. Spanning five years, SALLY MANN: WHAT REMAINS contains unbridled access to the many stages of Mann's work, and is a rare glimpse of an eloquent and brilliant artist.

I really appreciate her approach, for one reason, she accepts the Chaos element instead of fighting against it. I do the best I can to accept chaos into my Digital work., which goes against the idea to begin with. Her idea about Death's memory and land not remembering I don't agree with...but that is a whole other idea...
Her technique with collodion is so bad, so uncontrolled, that all of her photographs are accidents. Beautiful, breathtaking, one-of-kind accidents. I hope she continues to photograph this way.
