If you were to ask me to define a photograph in a few words, I would say it is a fossil of light and time.

Making a definitive declaration of intent or meaning kills the photograph.

For me, photography is not a means by which to create beautiful art, but a unique way of encountering genuine reality

Photography is the act of "fixing" time, not of "expressing" the world. The camera is an inadequate tool for extracting a vision of the world or of beauty.

[My] photos are often out of focus, rough, streaky, warped, etc. But if you think about it, a normal human being will in one day perceive an infinite number of images, and some of them are focused upon, others are barely seen out of the corner of one's eye.

I wanted to go to the end of photography.
