We are alone on this planet. It's not a choice. Here we are. This is what everyone has to deal with.

A word is worth a thousand images.

My father did advertising photography.

I read a picture not for what's really going on there, I read it more for what is going on in our world generally.

I am never interested in the individual, but in the human species and its environment.

I stand at a distance, like a person who comes from another world.

In retrospect I can see that my desire to create abstractions has become more and more radical. Art should not be delivering a report on reality, but should be looking at what's behind something.
