My dream since I was a kid was to show in a gallery.

I'll let criticism spoil breakfast, but I don't let it affect my lunch.

I have this idea that you can use glamour and still have it represent something that matters.

I like thinking about the fragility of the human flesh and our bodies - our decay and eventual death.

I think that the world is really in very dark ages. In America this could have never been showed, we are even more lost over there than in Europe. We are very lost!

People will get tired of overly retouched images soon and they'll want something different. If people have too much reality, they want fantasy. What matters most is what the image communicates. I remember the first roll of film I shot at high school, the contact sheet went from these really worthy images of cracks in the wall and ended up with all of my dancer friends naked in Renaissance poses.

I have no interest in being famous. I just want to make famous photographs.
