Photography was the first foreign language of my artistic expression.
In my photographs it is apparent that there was no posing at the moment I released the shutter.
Gatherings and, simultaneously, loneliness are the conditions of a writer's life.
I am curious about grownups, not children.
I am inspired by human sexuality. The act itself is mechanical and holds little interest to me.
Mapplethorpe presented the body as a sexual object, separating it from the humanity of the person. He added nothing to photography as a medium. I hold his work in low regard.
