The adornment of the body is a human need.

I shoot fantasy. If you want reality, ride the bus

Just as Renaissance artists provided narratives for the era they lived in, so do I. I'm always looking beyond the surface. I've done that ever since I first picked up a camera.

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

I'm part of what I consider the entertainment industry. For my photos to be entertaining, they have to be provocative and new.

The matriarchal society 1300 years ago in Egypt was a peaceful society; that's where you had no war for thousands of years! When they switched to patriarchal society, when the male energy ruled, we became obsessed with the greed. Now we are in this time of intense greed!

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