The adornment of the body is a human need. I don't see anything superficial about it unless your life becomes very materialistic.

My pictures are about getting as far away from reality as possible. Dreams should be part of our everyday life.

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

The cruelty, war and violence, this is evil, wrong and dark and that's what we should hide from the children, not a human body!

Then I got this idea in my head that magazines were like a gallery and if you got your magazine page ripped out and someone stuck it on their refrigerator, then that was a museum – someone’s private museum.

I went to art high school and thought I'd be a painter. Unfortunately I didn't finish high school, but that's always been part of my work.

I didn’t see any difference between being a photographer or being an artist. I didn’t make those boundaries. If someone wants to think it’s art, that’s great, but I’ll let history decide.
