Art is really whispering, not shouting.

In the West, people tend to look at life as spectators, but in the East, people are the thing.

I believe in invisible; I do not believe in visible.

I often try to photograph things about a person that are not visible.

Photographers tend not to photograph what they can’t see, which is the very reason one should try to attempt it. Otherwise we’re going to go on forever just photographing more faces and more rooms and more places. Photography has to transcend description. It has to go beyond description to bring insight into the subject, or reveal the subject, not as it looks, but how does it feel?

My work is about my life as an event, and I find myself to be very temporal, transient.

We live in a culture where the one who shouts the loudest gets the most attention. It's not in the vulgar, it's not in the shock that one finds art. And it's not the excessively beautiful. It's in between; it's in nuance.
