For me, photography is as much about the way I respond to the subject as it is about the subject itself.

I fell in love with the process of taking pictures, with wandering around finding things. To me it feels like a kind of performance. The picture is a document of that performance.

For me, the act of photography is all about discovery and finding new things.

Nobody really wants to be alone. People need people.

You can photograph anything. You can be inside, outside, doesn't matter, you're controlling the light. It gives you great flexibility. That was a primary motivation.

For good work to develop the technology needs to become as stable and functional as a typewriter.

I've never been comfortable photographing people I know, myself included. I guess I prefer the mystery of strangers.
