If you make an honest picture of war, it will be an antiwar photograph.

I want my pictures to cut through political abstractions... and make a connection on a human level.

[Photography] puts a human face on issues which, from afar, can appear abstract or ideological or monumental in their global impact.

Photography can be perceived as the opposite of war.

Is it possible to put an end to a form of human behavior which has existed throughout history by means of photography?

Starvation and disease are the original weapons of mass destruction. When you burn fields and kill animals, people are left vulnerable.

For me, the strength of photography lies in its ability to evoke humanity. If war is an attempt to negate humanity, then photography can be perceived as the opposite of war.
